Ender's Game
When hostile aliens called the Formics attack Earth, only the legendary
heroics of Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley) manage to attain a victory. To prepare
for the next attack, Col. Hyrum Graff (Harrison Ford) and his cohorts initiate a
military program to find the next Mazer. Recruit Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield)
exhibits an unusual gift for the training, easily mastering all of the
challenges thrown at him. Mazer Rackham, himself, takes Ender as a protege to
prepare him for the oncoming war.
