The Gist: After an attempted alien invasion that cost millions of lives, humanity has devised a plan of attack that relies on the highly developed videogame playing skills of younger kids. One of them, Ender, displays much promise in both tactics and technique.
The Bottom Line: I debated with myself whether I should watch this movie or not because gay organizations called for a boycott due to the highly bigoted views of the book’s author, but ultimately my sci-fi itch prevailed. Alas, the movie turned out to be pretty weak and has a couple of big holes in the plot. And while visually it might be interesting, it really doesn’t make the grade.
Grade: 4
