Summary
Will Ferrell’s new Netflix golf comedy “The Hawk” is pure chaotic charm — think “Talladega Nights” meets dad jokes and Paw Patrol band-aids. Ferrell stars as Lonnie “The Hawk” Hawkins, a washed-up pro still chasing glory on the minor leagues with his loyal caddy (Keith David) and a strained relationship with his ambitious son, Lance. Molly Shannon plays his ex-wife, a tequila-sipping entrepreneur and helicopter mom, while a mysterious literary recluse named Radford adds depth to the absurdity. The show’s heart beats loudest in its messy family dynamics, even as plotlines vanish like wayward drives. Expect Ferrell’s signature blend of sentimental goofiness and improvised chaos — sometimes random, always hilarious — even if the ending feels a little too engineered.
