Carla Hay Culture Mix Haymaker is a globe-trotting film that had the potential to be a compelling adventure/love story. However, the movie's incoherent storyline, badly written dialogue, and dull acting make it very forgettable. Apr 1, 2021 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Common Sense Media This good-looking action/drama, casually paced and set against intriguing, late-night backdrops, is unfortunately a total flatline in terms of story and characters, with the exception of Ruiz. Rated: 2/5 Feb 8, 2021 Full Review Peter Martin ScreenAnarchy Light on its feet and doesn't overstay its welcome. Rated: 3.0 Feb 5, 2021 Full Review Justin Harrison The Spool And Haymaker is a complete and total failure of a movie. Feb 4, 2021 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed Haymaker is a slow moving film that doesn't feel like it's about the lead character that is expected from its synopsis. The film is an interesting watch and Nomi Ruiz makes the film... Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 31, 2021 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Hardly a knockout, this combination of a stilted love story with a fighter's quest for redemption falls flat inside and outside the ring.
