I think that going into the movie without having read the book is actually a better bet as then the overly truncated parts of the movie will not be quite so glaring.
Overall, I liked the movie, but I do hope that there is eventually a director's cut that allows more time in the battle school and to a lesser extent the command school because at times the film seemed rushed enough that you lose some of the character development that explains why the others are so ready to follow Ender.
On the reading during trailers point from earlier, I use my Kindle until they lower the lights in the cinema, regardless of the light level you are being rude and distracting to others in the cinema otherwise. Luckily, my local cinema only puts down the lights for the actual trailers and not the other adverts.
