Mindblowingly bad acting

Rating: 1/10 (29 January 2014)

I'm amazed by the positive reviews this movie is getting. I haven't read any of the books, so I sat down to watch it, without bias or expectations. Now 2 hours of violent eye-rolling, has left me with a headache.
The unbelievably shallow characters coupled with the horrendously bad acting, made me resent the kids - from the sickeningly emotional and constantly teary-eyed Ender, to the laughably pathetic bully Gonzo, or whatever his name was.
The movie's only impressive feat, is the production crew's ability to refrain from groaning loudly when forced to witness the cast's "performances"! But maybe the buuhing and sighs were edited out in post production...
