   Ender's Game   
   2013 PG-13  114 minutes   
      
   Talented preteen children, including Andrew "Ender" Wiggin, discovered by   
   humanity's military International Fleet, are trained for battle against the   
   alien insectoid Formics ("Buggers") invading Earth.   
      
   Cast:Harrison Ford, Asa Butterfield, Hailee Steinfeld, Viola Davis, Abigail   
   Breslin, Ben Kingsley, Moises Arias, Aramis Knight   
   Director:Gavin Hood   
      
      
   An excellent film over all.  The "children" don't act much like kids   
   fortunately.  Ben Kingsley is particularly impressive and Ford is solid as   
   always.  The FX work, particularly the zero-g combat training is impressive.    
   The only down side is the after    
   ending with the magic (telepathy = magic), but that's a minor point.
