Disappointed

Rating: 6/10 (13 November 2013)

Spoilers. It should be about the Game, at least that is about in the book. The movie has no character development. The visuals are good, the acting was OK but, God where is the build up of the story, you know...the serious thing about his genius, about his ability to command. My girlfriend saw the movie with me and she did not red the books, she asked me what made him so good that he was promoted to squad commander in just 20 minutes of the movie. All is so rushed in the movie, nobody knows WHY they had monitors in the back of their head. The movie take another road, apart from the book with only one fleet sent on the Formics home planet, does not explain how they got there, when they were sent, instead they make us think that humans were in possession of fast light-years technology by sending Ender near the planet of the formic (what?). The movie fails to explain how the formic communicate in Universe. There are so many things unexplained in the movie that it made me think that some stupid director played with scissors and cut the tape to shorten the movie enough to fit the time frame.
