The movie version of Orson Scott Card's book by the same name. The film is pretty true to the plot lines of the novel, putting into view what Card created. Sometimes, especially with alien/space characters, the movie version and my imagination version from the book are very different. But in this case, Card's original text is so vivid that creative license took the viewer to the same place as the reader. Meaning no real surprises or revelations here and the movie was as expected. Perhaps because of this, I wanted to see more of the battle training sequences - which were the most fun of the entire movie. I'll stick with 'the book is better' only because it was fun to have my own images of Card's world.
3 stars (out of 5)
