    • Trivia
      The U.S. Marine Corps has Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card on its recommended reading list for officers, saying that it offers "lessons in training methodology, leadership, and ethics as well."
    • Goofs
      Colonel Graff remarks that Napoléon Bonaparte "conquered the known world," which is not untrue. The correct reference should have been Alexander the Great who, it could be said, conquered the known world. This could be accepted as accurate because he did conquer the parts of the world of which Macedonia and nearby regions had knowledge. The wilds of the Far East and of western and norther Europe, as well as central and southern Africa were the stuff of little more than rumor.
    • Quotes

      Ender Wiggin: In the moment when I truly understand my enemy, understand him well enough to defeat him, then in that very moment I also love him.

    • Crazy credits
      There are no opening credits. The film's title doesn't appear until the start of the closing credits.

      Featured in The Graham Norton Show: Harrison Ford/Benedict Cumberbatch/Jack Whitehall/James Blunt (2013)

    A warning about the obscenity that is militarism.
    I have read the first two Ender books years ago, so I knew what to expect from the movie. And it delivered. "Ender's Game" is a deeply disturbing tale of a child made into a monster by the fears of his society. Much like "Neon Genesis Evangelion" at its most puissant, it makes one wonder what is there in humanity worth protecting, and at what price.
