Ender’s Game (2013) is a science fiction action film directed by Gavin Hood, based on the best-selling 1985 novel by Orson Scott Card. The film stars Asa Butterfield as Andrew “Ender” Wiggin, a brilliant young boy who is recruited by the International Fleet to train as a military leader in humanity’s fight against an alien species known as the Formics.

Set in a future where Earth has barely survived a devastating attack by the Formics, Ender’s Game follows Ender as he is taken to Battle School, a space-based training facility where gifted children are prepared for command. Ender’s exceptional strategic mind and ability to think outside the box quickly set him apart from his peers. He undergoes rigorous training in zero-gravity battle simulations and psychological tests designed to push him to his limits.

As Ender rises through the ranks, he struggles with the moral implications of warfare and the intense pressure placed on him by his mentors, particularly Colonel Graff (played by Harrison Ford), who believes Ender may be humanity’s last hope. The film builds towards a climactic battle where Ender must make decisions that will determine the fate of Earth and the future of the human race.
