Went to see this last night and I'm a bit...Meh!

Realy don't know what to make of it, certainly wasn't blown away by it, but also wouldn't say it was abysmal.
An interseting concept that kept me wanting to know more.
Unfortunately its clearly aimed at younger teens as the plot is laid out so obviously you can see most things well in advance.
Casting could have been better, can't believe they used Nonso Anonzie as the drill Sgt, had scarier hairdressers than him.
Clearly left open for the sequal, in fact it would have been better if they'd just ended with "look forward to Enders Game 2" in the credits.

So overall? Enjoyable, entertainment for a Sunday afternoon, but not quite worth an evening in the cinema, unless you have young teens of course!

So having read the book and seen the film, is it worth me reading it or is the film pretty much on par?
