Will Ferrell's Golf Flop | Reno News

Netflix’s new Will Ferrell series “The Hawk” is a baffling misfire — a washed-up golf pro comedy that delivers zero laughs, marking what many believe is Ferrell’s worst work yet. Once known for classics like “Anchorman” and “Step Brothers,” Ferrell’s comedic timing feels off, save for occasional bright spots like “Spirited” and “Barbie.” The show’s cast, including Molly Shannon (underused), Fortune Feimster (a few solid lines), and Luke Wilson (the funniest standout), can’t salvage the tone. Critics argue Ferrell’s attempt to replicate the magic of “Talladega Nights” falls flat — even “Happy Gilmore” outshines this. The consensus? Ferrell needs his old creative spark with Adam McKay back in the room. “The Hawk” may be the ultimate proof that without that chemistry, his comedy’s lost its edge.
