A super ridiculous and laughable movie presented in great CGI effects...

Rating: 4/10 (19 April 2014)

While visually great, then "Ender's Game" turned out to be somewhat of a hollow experience that lacked any sense of believability. I mean, a boy about 13 years old who rises through the ranks of an intergalactic military force to end up commanding a massive army? Sure, that was just so believable as it is as scratching yourself.
This movie appeals for a young audience, a very young audience, because anything that even remotely bears any sense of reality or realism is out the window, and there is a young boy wonder who handles every single thing thrown against him with brilliancy and ease. Yeah, I will buy that for a dollar.
Not only is the storyline very hard to buy into or believe for a second, then the entire movie bears no particular contents, and it is a hollow experience that is carried only by the spectacular visual effects and the names of Harrison Ford and Ben Kingsley.
Let's take a moment and look at the combat training, shall we? A bunch of kids playing laser tag in zero gravity, that qualifies for making commanders that will lead the entire military force in space? And these are kids, mind you. The older, seasoned and experienced military officers and leaders just sat back and gave way to children. Yeah, all very, very believable.
And for those who suffer through the entire course of the movie, brace yourself for a slap in the face kind of an ending. Now, I am not going to spoil it here by saying what it is, but come on, seriously? That ending was just laughable and ridiculous.
I enjoy Sci-Fi, but "Ender's Game" was just a swing and a miss, a massive swing and a miss. It scores a mere 4 out of 10 stars from me, solely because of the visual effects and because of Harrison Ford and Ben Kingsley.
