There was so much more at the Battle School.


There was way more to the book in general. I found the movie was too rushed. Seemed more like a montage than telling the story with how rushed it was. We just get a glimpse of what's going on them bam it jumps forward.

I have read some of the books in the series and enjoyed the movie for what it was. I really liked Butterfield as Ender. I'm glad they didn't tone down the brutality of the kids as much as I was expecting them to.

There was just too much subject matter to put into a 2 hour movie which flew by. I don't know what people were expecting them to do? Make a 3 hour LOTR movie?

Overreaction to hating the movie is a little elitist.

If anything, they made the movie compelling for non-book readers and will get some people to read the OSC version based on word of mouth on how great the book is.
