A Flawed Metaphor for American Foreign Policy

Rating: 6/10 (19 January 2014)

If you were expecting a sci fi outer space saga you might be let down by Ender's Game. Most of the film involves boot camp for starship troopers. Still, as a film it is engaging through a good performance from Asa Butterfield.
The film's messages heads towards the idea that there always will be an adversary trying to destroy human (or American) civilization. If this is the idea, while there may be some validity to this, it's a bit of a stretch.
The climax or anti climax, was rather evident ahead of time and the ending seems like the writers ran out of of ideas as I have for this review. Its worth a watch but more quickly forgettable than Gravity.
