Good movie, but not worth the book

Rating: 8/10 (23 January 2014)

Like many here, I was a bit afraid to see how would one of my favorite books ever look like on the big screen. First impression: good. First reason casting is great, Harrisson Ford and the young actor are really good, especially the boy. Second reason, the (complex) story is quite well rendered. Overall experience is good, and as a fan of Scott card I really loved the movie. I was expecting more though, as many parts of the books are not well described. The beginning for example where Ender is very small, the terror of Peter, the long long boring fights in the military school, and of course the video game that Ender plays, all theses would have needed much more time, but it is a movie so you need to cut things  But definitely worth it! And for everybody who have not read the book, read it!
