So, 'Prodigy' is quite the ride. You’ve got this child psychologist, Jimmy, who thinks he’s seen it all, but then he meets Ellie—a 9-year-old with a mind that’s both brilliant and chilling. The atmosphere is thick with tension; you can almost feel Jimmy's anxiety as he navigates this dangerous game. The pacing keeps you on edge, especially as Ellie’s true nature unfolds. It's like a psychological chess match, and the practical effects used to show her manipulations add a nice layer of realism. Performances are strong, particularly from the young actress playing Ellie; she captures that unsettling innocence. It’s definitely a unique take on the genre, exploring themes of control and the nature of evil in a fresh way.
