Critics Consensus: If it isn't quite as thought-provoking as the book, Ender's Game still manages to offer a commendable number of well-acted, solidly written sci-fi thrills.

Reviews

InSession Film

JD Duran

Ender’s Game is a fun, dramatic look that is different and unique for most sci-fi movies. While it follows the basic trope of alien invasion, it quickly turns into a moral dilemma that involves some heavy and complex themes.

Not having read Card’s novel, I couldn’t say whether it was truly “unfilmable,” but what ends up on the screen is indeed “filmable” in that we’ve seen these narrative threads countless times before in science fiction cinema.

A joyless video game experience, complete with levels of increasing difficulty and a main character who never really faces a true conflict.

It is a fairly satisfying bit of science fiction that walks the tricky line of trying to appeal to youth and adults alike. For the most part it succeeds.

Every Movie Has a Lesson

Don Shanahan

The film does its best from the source novel to occupy Ender's psyche, between the jubilation of success to the hard decisions of a soldier.
