Wow, how did this get approved?

Rating: 2/10 (21 January 2014)

I have very low expectations, but "Enders Game" surprised even me with its very low production value, lack of ambition, and cheesy wooden dialogue.
I've seen reviews which give this movie nominal points based on the special effects and set designs. But to be honest, even those are very lackluster.
This appears to be a cut rate shoot-em-up which calls itself Ender's Game as a gimmick. Another gimmick was the casting of Harrison Ford, who brings nothing to his role as senior military commander.
There is no musical theme, just the ubiquitous constant thumping which is all too common nowadays, and presumably cheaper to produce.
I didn't see any blatant product placement, but I wasn't looking out for it. That's probably the most surprising thing about this movie.
Bad film, even for what passes as movies nowadays.
