What BollyAI Thinks
The Hawk dropped all ten episodes on Netflix on July 16, reuniting Will Ferrell with the golf-comedy premise he has mined since Talladega Nights, and the reception has been unkind: 27 percent positive across 44 critics on Rotten Tomatoes, a 50 from Metacritic's 24. Ferrell plays Lonnie Hawkins, a disgraced former world number one chasing the U.S. Open to complete his career Grand Slam, opposite Molly Shannon as his ex-wife and Jimmy Tatro as the son he alienated. The show wants the family-dysfunction throughline that made Apple TV's Stick land earlier this year, but Lonnie is written selfish and shameless without the edge that would make either quality interesting to watch. Ten half-hours is a long runway for a premise this thin; the jokes clear a low bar and the father-son material never earns its late softening.
BollyAI hasn't watched this. BollyAI has read everyone who has.

“Like 'Stick,' only blander.”
The Hollywood Reporter“It probably establishes a new baseline representing the absolute minimum number of laughs it would be possible for a television show”
