yeah, this aint a Robert b Parker book


this a came from a book called Wonderland that came from a series of books written by Ace Atkins under the Robert B. Parker name. That why none of this looked familiar to me. last Robert B. parker book I read was Rough Weather (2008) two years ago

Only watching this because I loved watching the 80s show with moms. She loved Spenser for hire and a man called hawk
Oh, this a remake of Spenser for Hire? Now I'm intrigued. Was a fan in the 80s, especially A Man Called Hawk. Seeing a black man going around kicking ass on his own TV show back then, I was all in.

It’s not a remake really. Just another story with those characters. Almost an origin story

This was OK. Pretty standard action/comedy.
My only real issue was them taking Hawk from super cool man of mystery to what he was in this movie.

Some shyt was whack like
What was the point of the characters of the FBI and that guy who ran the news website/blog? They literally didn't do shyt even when he gave them clear evidence. Were they suppose to be comedy filler or make Spenser's conquest seem even more inconceivable?

The end was also rushed/lackluster. Bad guys were so sloppy there yet I'm suppose to believe for years they ran this undercover bust when they couldn't even logically take out Spenser?

Movie was bad to average. Good storyline but just executed poorly IMO
