‘The Hawk’ Review: Will Ferrell’s First Netflix Series Is a Lame Comedy — or a Bizarre Addiction Drama

Will Ferrell stars in the Netflix series The Hawk as Lonnie "The Hawk" Hawkins, a washed-up golfer attempting a final run at the PGA Tour. Despite pleas from his son and ex-wife to stop, he pursues this goal. Critical reviews are mixed; some describe the show as a lame comedy or a bizarre addiction drama, while others characterize the production as endearing, dumb fun that provides much to enjoy even when it misses par.
