After an alien race called the Formics attacks Earth, the International Fleet prepare for the next invasion by training the best young children to find the future leader to lead the International Military. Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield), a shy but strategically brilliant boy, is pulled out of his school to join International Fleet and attend the legendary Battle School. After easily mastering the increasingly difficult war games, distinguishing himself and winning respect among his peers, Ender is soon ordained by Colonel Graff (Harrison Ford) as the military's next great hope, resulting in his promotion to Command School. Once there, he's trained by Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley) himself to lead the military into a war that will determine the future of Earth and the human race.

Dude, what the f*ck is Sir Ben's deal? He wants to play as many races as possible before he buys the farm? I swear he's been everything but a black man...oh wait.......nevermind.

is every Kingsley related article going to turn into "but is he playing the characters for realz?" joke? because that would get really annoying (and stupid) really fast.

I still remember being convinced that Ben Kingsley had died years ago. Imagine my surprise when he kept making movies.

Rackham is a half-Maori in the novel, so it makes sense that he has those tattoos. Kind of, I guess.

Seriously, hold off on the spoilers for one more day.

and cue jokes about Ben Kingsley not playing the character he is supposed t......whoops nevermind...lol

Im split on the twist from Iron Man 3. but the thing I hated at that point of the movie was that it became a scene from the Hangover or something, because when you are changing the complete idea of the original character, you go ahead and beat people over the head with it while making fun of the fact that its not the Mandarin you were expecting. HATED THAT SCENE

AND I NEVER WANT TO HEAR HOW MARVEL ARE SO MUCH BETTER THAN FOX BECAUSE THEY STAY CLOSER TO THE COMICS, because the response from now on will be one word: MANDARIN

@SuperSoldier004. It's not a straight rip off, it is a Maori Moko down to a T.
Just wandering though, is he playing a A Maori in this?
He can really pass as one and that's coming from a Maori!

If spoilers ruin the movie for you, it's either a terrible movie, or you have no taste.
