Prodigal (2011) is an interesting dive into the science fiction genre. It explores the lengths a father will go to rescue his daughter, which gives the narrative a strong emotional core. The pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, but that's part of its charm. The atmosphere is thick with tension, especially as these two organizations close in on the daughter, who has these 'special' abilities. Practical effects are utilized sparingly but effectively, lending a gritty realism to the more fantastical elements. Performances are solid, especially from the father, who carries a weight of desperation throughout. It's not your typical sci-fi fare and has its quirks that make it distinctive in its own right.
