Indeed, some patience would have been nice. The initial set-up in Adam Cozad and David Koepp’s screenplay is so rushed in getting to the point that the characters miss an opportunity to be fleshed out. However, in fairness, it’s a slick, rollicking popcorn movie with a far-fetched plot and a nice sense of humour, so probably best not to take it too seriously.
The film is set around a hundred years into the future, when Earth has managed to withstand a prolonged attack from the ‘Formics’, an insect-like alien race. In order to pre-empt future attacks, children are trained to become military tacticians.
