HairBrained (2013)
Directed by Billy Kent
this film stars Alex Wolff, Brendan Fraser, Julia Garner and
Elisabeth Hower. A 14 year old genius gets rejected by Harvard and
ends up at a much lower ranked school where he makes friends with a
mature student.
There is not a lot of
originality or depth in the plot of this film that takes it's
structure from the standard sports film basing the plot around a
inter college mastermind competition. While there are plenty of
decent hooks for character development none of them are capitalised
on and there is only the occasional moment of comedy. What this film
needed to succeed was a lot more personality but it fails to deliver
much of anything.
2/5
