An enormous wasted opportunity. That is the best way to sum up Antoine Charreyron's The Prodigies, an animated feature with an intriguing premise but a horrible, horrible script that doesn't know what sort of movies it wants to be for what sort of audience and collapses entirely under a ridiculously over complicated plot and complete lack of character development.No. I did not like this movie. At all.The story goes like this. We begin with Jimbo as a young teen. He's an obviously intelligent young man but stuck in an abusive home and it takes just moments before his father is throwing his mother down the stairs and laying the belt on to Jimbo - an act of violence that flashes to white and somehow...

It’s a French animated feature titled The Prodigies (aka La Nuit des Enfants Rois), directed by Antoine Charreyron.
Its story goes… NYC, Central Park, 2010. Five young teenagers are violently assaulted. But they’re not your average teenagers… they’re prodigies. The trauma of the assault incites them to lash out against the world in a cold and calculating way in the name of revenge. The only person aware of their plan is Jimbo Farrar, a sixth prodigy, who has gathered them, and who fights against the other 5, in order to prevent a world disaster of apocalyptic proportions.
Warner Bros France is responsible for this, so I suppose it’s only a matter of time before we see a live-action North American remake??? At the very least, we’ll probably see a subtitled, or English-dubbed version soon enough.
It’s supposed to have already been released in France, last month specifically.

The Prodigies is an upcoming French 3D animated film based on Bernard Lenteric’s early 80s novel La nuit des enfants rois about a group of gifted teenagers whose past traumas cause them to wreak havoc against the world (and from the looks of it, specifically New York). The 60 second trailer, set to “Exogenesis Symphony Pt 1: Overture” by Muse, showcases a pared down visual palette, but kuhRAYZEE action, with sweeping, swirling camera movements. The Prodigies is the first feature from director Antoine Charreyron, whose previous output consists mostly of video games such as Wet and Wheelman, featuring the voice talents of Eliza Dushku and Vin Diesel respectively.

What the hell is The Prodigies? That's a question I'd very much like to have answered myself. Prior to the teaser trailer, I hadn't heard a thing about this 3D animated film from France, but now it's quickly become one of my more anticipated movies of the year. The film is based on Bernard Lenteric's early '80s novel of the same name (French title: La nuit des enfants rois), and centers around a group of gifted teenagers whose past traumas cause them to wreak havoc against the world -- and the one person capable of putting a stop to their revenge. Watch the immensely cool teaser trailer after the break. Within a period of 60 seconds, The Prodigies teaser (found via Twitch Film [1]) injects enough swirling camera movements and city-wide destruction -- all hypnotically set to "Exogenesis Symphony Pt 1: Overture" by Muse -- to get any action aficionado salivating and longing for more.

Not much to say really except Antoine Charreyron's The Prodigies (french title: La Nuit des enfants rois) has a release date and a teaser poster. It seems the four-eyed fella has a chip on his shoulder.

Kinology is heading to Cannes with a single title in Copacabana – the Isabelle Huppert starring with her daughter comedy is a focal point in the Critic's Week section this year. It's the projects that they've got on the sales slate that have got my ears perked up in an upright position – beginning with Juan Solanas' next - he is currently shooting Upside Down in Montreal, while Andrew Niccol is still in pre-production mod with The Cross. - Kinology is heading to Cannes with a single title in Copacabana – the Isabelle Huppert starring with her daughter comedy is a focal point in the Critic's Week section this year.

Kinology is heading to Cannes with a single title in Copacabana – the Isabelle Huppert starring with her daughter comedy is a focal point in the Critic's Week section this year. It's the projects that they've got on the sales slate that have got my ears perked up in an upright position – beginning with Juan Solanas' next - he is currently shooting Upside Down in Montreal, while Andrew Niccol is still in pre-production mod with The Cross – if I remember correctly it was first announced at last year's Cannes and they are trying to bring down the price tag on the 50 million dollar-ish production. French items worth keeping an eye out for are Benoît Philippon's Lullaby for Pi – which was shot in Canada and would logically find a spot at Tiff. Mathieu Kassovitz also has a project in development . Buried by Rodrigo Cortes - Post-Production Heartbreaker (L'arnacoeur) by Pascal Chaumeil...

Adapted from Bernard Lenteric’s eponymous 1982 novel, The Prodigies (also known as The Child Kings) finished its shoot in February. It used live actors equipped with sensors which were then reinserted and reworked into the images in the graphic set. This is supposed to be a 3d animation, but it's not clear if what type of 3d that means. I've been holding off on posting news of this hoping that something more would show up, but it's been long enough. This looks and sounds like one incredible project and I can't wait for more. The film is directed by Antoine Charreyron and the book is adapted by Mathieu Delaporte and Alexandre de La Patellière. A release is slated for September of 2010.
Central Park, New York. Five children are savagely assaulted. But these five are unlike most : They are child prodigies. From this atrocity they draw a cold and endless hatred of the world.
