Based on the acclaimed sci-fi short story by Lewis Padgett, The Last Mimzy tells the story of two children who discover a mysterious box containing strange devices they think are toys. As the siblings explore the unique objects, they begin to display higher and higher intelligence levels -- growing far beyond genius. Realizing that something extraordinary is happening, the children embark on a mission to save our future before time runs out and things quickly spin wildly out of control. Featuring an acclaimed ensemble cast including Ordinary People's Timothy Hutton, Nip/Tuck's Joely Richardson, The Green Mile's Michael Clarke Duncan, The Office's Rainn Wilson and newcomers Rhiannon Leigh Wryn and Chris O'Neil, this mystical family film comes from the producer of the landmark sci-fi epic Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
