A Brave Scifi movie that refuses to follow mainstream Hollywood storyline

Rating: 10/10 (10 November 2013)

This film was nothing like Harry Potter and Star Wars but is a totally different entity that punches you in the gut with surprise twists that makes you question a troubling premise of manipulating children for drone warfare. Similar to the ending in, Barry Levinson's 'Toys' 1992 with the evil military General played by Michael Gambon who goes to play Dumbledor in HP. This time the fatherly figure is a Colonel played by Harrison Ford who is key manipulator in controlling Wiggins destiny exploiting his child genius as a Star Killer regardless of the emotional damage.
A thought Provoking film that echoes in your mind as you are dazzled by the great effects and the idea of giving so much destructive power to a single child genius whose emotional tug of war shares his sisters kind heart and his brothers violent nature resulting in an imaginative tactical brilliance is so controversial.
