OK, so it was never going to be as good as the book, but...

Rating: 6/10 (5 November 2013)

As an book which was described as unfilmable by the author, they were never going to do a great job converting this to a film - as many have commented it was too rushed and way too much was skipped over.
However, I don't get why some significant areas of plot were changed for no good reason.
Spoilers follow
Here are the pointless changes in my opinion: 1) Bean in the same launch group, wtf? 2) Only Ender playing the fantasy game, (mind game in the film), why? 3) Bonzo smaller then Ender. 4) Ender's reaction after the graduation test...
The book is one of my favourites, the film was just nice eye-candy.
