Watched The Prodigy tonight. It was meh - flat, cold, and stiff. If you liked The Boy, Glass, Godsend, Dark Water, The Disappointments Room, Shut In, Friend Request, The Sixth Sense, and A Cure for Wellness you would like this.
I don't think the high YT trailer views were a sign of larger things to come. - the overall movie didn't blow away with action
The Prodigy lucked out on the scheduling, like a movie opening before Christmas, but I think this will drop drastically against Happy Death Day 2 on V-day.
It had some jump unique jump scares, but a limited story.
My gut is the cinemascore would be somewhere around a C, Escape Room must be looking at another good hold this week against direct competition and is Escape Room a 4-star movie like the legs and cinemascore promise?
*The Child's Play trailer looks like this one will roll off the assembly line with a 30M OW and maybe a PG-13 rating in the spirit of IT
