Good Film

Rating: 8/10 (28 May 2014)

As long as you ignore the fact that it was ever a book it was a very good film; however if you did compare book to film it was very poor as so much was missed out and so much expanded unnecessarily. The "children" were all 5-10 years too old for their roles. The greatest miss was the development of Dragon Army from nothing to the last game. It was also a shame that more was not made of Bean's contribution to the story from Ender's Shadow. However the graphics and backdrops etc. were excellent and, ignoring the translation from book to film, all the characters did well and the "torment" felt by ender at the end was well portrayed
