02.28.14 | Netflix | It's hard for me to separate my experience with this versus my memory of the book which I thought was great when I read it years and years ago. Maybe people who never read the book would like this. I didn't. The tone is bizarre, Ender's not enough of a kid, the whole family dynamic between Peter, Val, and Ender is rushed and feels off, I feel like the ending is so heavily telegraphed that it's no surprise at all because it's never quite clear that Mazer is supposed to be running the tests and the very very end gets so philosophical in like the last 90 seconds. I feel like it's a pretty big mess. Oh well. |
