Prodigy – Übernatürlich (2017)

Prodigy – Übernatürlich: Directed by Alex Haughey, Brian Vidal. With Richard Neil, Savannah Halliday, Jolene Andersen, Emilio Palame. A psychologist engages a dangerous, young genius in a battle of wits — unaware of the supernatural power the girl possesses, or that her life hangs in the balance.

“The psychologist Dr. Fonda (Richard Neil) is invited by his colleague and friend Dr. Olivia (Jolene Andersen) to analyze the girl Ellie (Savannah Liles) in a military facility directed by Mr. Birch (Emilio Palame). Dr. Fonda is monitored by experts and must decide the fate of Ellie, who is the result of a failed military experiment. Soon Dr. Fonda discovers that Ellie is an intelligent girl and also a menace since she has powerful abilities and the military intend to destroy her. But Dr. Fonda foresees a chance to control her. What will be Ellie´s fate?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;Prodigyu0026quot; is a surprisingly good low budget film. The storyline is tense and attractive but the conclusion is predictable. The plot is not original and there are many other films with powerful kids (maybe u0026quot;Carrieu0026quot; is the most famous) and Ellie recalls Carrie associated to Dr. Hannibal Lecter. But the conflict between emotion and reason is interesting. My vote is seven.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTitle (Brazil): u0026quot;Prodigyu0026quot;”
