swings wildly from agreeably scary to shockingly silly

Rating: 1/5 --
It's an unscary scary movie that quickly abandons the very thing that might have made it interesting...

Rating: 2/5 --
Not even an amiable central performance from Taylor Schilling...and some early atmospheric mood-setting can save this "demon child" knock-off from its ineptitude.

Rating: 2/4 --
McCarthy's film dips its toes into some stock scare tactics - the whistling tea kettle, the dark hallway, the creepy basement - while struggling to figure out whether it wants its third act to be a boring or bad-ass sort of bonkers-bananas.

Rating: 3/10 --
The Prodigy tries to use elements of horror classics to make something new but completely misses the mark. It never decides if it wants to be a mystical horror or a realistic horror movie and it fails because of it.

McCarthy's direction is so sleepy that a number of key scenes fizzle out before they can pay off with the next big jump scare.

There are a couple moments when it works... [but] I would say go back and watch The Omen or The Bad Seed [instead].
