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.


Yeah, I don't really get the hate either. If you hate the movie because you were expecting it to be a perfect adaptation of the book, that's your fault.

I didn't expect a perfect adaptation, but I wanted it to at least be like the books.

It wasn't.
