re: Enders Game Review Thread

SPOILERS FOR NON BOOK READERS

Things I didn't like:
Campy dialogue (mainly at the beginning)
Peter not taking over the world (he might as well not have existed)
I never saw dwarves build a house out of the giant's carcass.
That Velentine didn't go with Ender in the end.
Everything felt extremely rushed.
Ender's grief scenes were waaaay too short and too few.
(This was probably my biggest gripe because it drives home the "I DESTROY my enemy" point)They never told the audience that Bonzo a and Stilson both died.

Things I liked:
Command School battle scenes.
Visuals.
Acting for the most part.
The reveal to Ender was done well.
That they didn't overly kid-ify it.
The Battle Room.
Ford was a good Graff.


Overall: 7/10
This is an extremely hard book to film but they did a pretty good job. But there are some things I don't get why they left out. Especially why they never said Ender killed Bonzo and Stilson.
