Review of Ender's Game (2013) by Henry H — 26 Feb 2018
The movie is based off the novel, but it's not the novel. The two are separate, I think that's an important distinction to make. If you've read the book Ender's Game, this movie was probably somewhere around a B- for you.
If you read Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow, you probably thought it was closer to a C. However, like I said, you have to separate the movie from the books and look at it in a vacuum. Doing that, I believe the movie did a good job.
Some scenes were rushed, the flow was interrupted a few times, but it delivered where it needed to. Asa was a great Ender, most of the other casts were on point (minus Bonzo). The battle room scenes were doing well, and the simulation battle graphics at the end was what I imagined while reading and then some.
