Fan of the book, and finally watched the movie...

Rating: 8/10 (18 February 2014)

..and actually was surprised to say i kinda liked it..
I mean, it doesn't come anywhere close to including all the depth and complexity of the novel.. There are definitely many things that get glossed over (like the Valentine/Peter stuff), but at the same time i don't think you could realistically cram ALL of that into one film.
But i felt like it did a decent job of giving a cliff-notes version of the tale of Ender in a fairly satisfying format.
The ending is a bit rushed, i think they could have done with some more characterization of what Ender was really trying to do, becoming Speaker for the Dead, but... Otherwise..
It did a decent job of realizing the settings of the Battle School and the Ansible battles pretty well.
