On his first day at Whittman College, a small, East Coast liberal arts school, Eli's sloppy mother can't be bothered to escort him personally. Instead, she drops him off at the bus, explaining: "I wanted to take you, but I'm just. So. Tired." She's played by Parker Posey, star of director/co-writer Billy Kent's 2006 comedy "The Oh in Ohio," and Posey gets about three lines of dialogue in a wasted opportunity to inject some real comic talent. (The formidable Fred Melamed similarly is underused in a minor role as a bookie.)
Once he arrives on campus, plot devices dictate that Eli must connect with his exact opposite: the overgrown slacker across the hall at his dorm. He's 41-year-old fellow freshman Leo Searly, who's going back to school to earn a degree after throwing his life away gambling. Brendan Fraser plays him with a party-boy glibness that's vaguely reminiscent of Val Kilmer in "Real Genius," another movie from which "HairBrained" borrows. (Kent co-wrote the script with Sarah Bird and Adam Wierzbianski.)

When we first see Leo, he's parked in his Mercedes Benz convertible, pounding a beer and pondering which sports electives to take. When Leo and Eli introduce themselves to each other, it's with the respective, self-assigned tags of "late bloomer" and "child prodigy."
