What happens when two young children become instant geniuses? They could band together to save the world, or there could be something else more sinister.

That's what moviegoers will have a chance to see on March 23 when New Line Cinema releases "The Last Mimzy." SyFy Portal and New Line are joining together to offer our readers a chance to win a "Last Mimzy" prize pack that includes a movie T-shirt and a backpack from the film through March 30.

"The Last Mimzy" is based on the acclaimed sci-fi short story by Lewis Padgett, and tells the story of two children who discover a mysterious box that contains some strange devices they think are toys. As the children play with these toys, they begin to display higher and higher intelligence levels. Their teacher tells their parents that they seem to have grown beyond genius.

Their parents, too, realize something extraordinary is happening. Emma (Rhiannon Leigh Ryn), the younger of the two, tells her confused mother that one fo the toys, a beat-up stuffed toy rabbit, is named Mimzy, and that "she teaches me things." As Emma's mom becomes increasingly concerned, a blackout shuts down the city and the government traces the source of power surge to Emma's family house.

Things quickly spin wildly out of their control as the children are focused on these strange objects, Mimzy and the important mission on which they seem to have been sent. When Emma says taht Mimzy contains a most serious message from the future, a scientific scan shows that Mimzy is part extremely high-level electronic and part organic. Everyone realizes that they are involved in something incredible, but what exactly?

The film, directed by New Line head Robert Shaye and also stars Rainn Wilson, Joely Richardson, Megan McKinnon, Marc Thomas Musso and Chris O'Neill.
