Likes : To start off with the story is good but this film as a few flaws special at the beginning of the film as well as most part's of this film as well but despite these flaws it's still entertaining.
Acting isn't Oscar winning but still good, Harrison ford played his part pretty well, Asa Butterfield dose a brilliant job as Ender Wiggin , but the drill Sergeant just seem out of place, I don't think the actor they got to play that role fitted it to be honest, it kind of compromises the film storyline in away to a point it wasn't convince enough of a believable character.
The sub plot & twist in the story is OK, but this film lack emotional content & action. It more of an illustrated storyline than an all out Sc-fi action adventure film but because of the flaws in this film for
me it fall below what IMDb rates this film, sorry but this film from the trailer looked like it had potential but it falls short of being a perfect Sc-fi because of the flaws.
It should of been a lot more action than the way this film was filmed, hardly any action & to much story just doesn't make for a interesting story its what lets this film down really. Visual the film is stunning with the C.G.I effects but With the film being slightly being slow as well as the flaws in this film there just isn't really enough to keep you interested in saying this was a fantastic film but it all down to how you see the film yourself but it not really going to be for everyone..
Dislikes : Like I said there are flaws in the story, one is the beginning there is no story on why the aliens attacked in the first place only that a war had began, the drill sergeant seriously felt out of place.
sorry but Nonso Anozie as much as a good actor he mite be this role just didn't fit him at all he felt complete out of place, The fact the story was slow it was entertaining but what lets this film down is the lack of action in this film, it ok if you more to a film that just a story more than action, but for the theme of this film I think it should of had more action scene instead on the one at the end of the film.
It because of these flaws this film is a slight let down from what the trailer shows it as a epic sc-fi film but it far from it.
Overall : If you go to watch this don't expect a full on action sc-fi as it more story than action, but still entertaining.
Rating: 3.5 out of 5 for entertainment / 5.2 out of 10 for story concept & action.
