Horrible character + even worse actor = Chavez!

To say 'awful' and 'unbearable' when talking about his character & performance would be an apocalyptical understatement.

Seriously...

He was so bad he often made me cover my eyes to prevent them from burning.

He was so bad he made me feel like taking three cold showers after the film was over.

He was so bad, in fact, that I think he ate my soul through the TV.

And now, I'm totally reposting this on the actor's board so that he knows how EVIL he was!

I don't know why they got a British-born Turkish Cypriot to play an American Latino. It's not like there aren't loads of them in America.

Maybe Tamer Hassan should stick to playing dodgy Cockney geezers.

This movie would have been so much better if they had just removed Chavez and replaced him with another mutant in addition to Three Finger.

Clearly konyomeng you know what you are talking about. This guy was spot on with his lines and really fit the role of being a tough sob. The final fight scene he did was outstanding also. He performed like a top notch actor while the rest of the cast was average to extremely bad.

Yeah, only reason I kept watching was because of him

he almost killed three fingers with his bare hands

I am glad to see that the OP has been shot down as clearly Tamer Hassan was excellent in this role in this movie.

Tamer Hassan is a glorified nightclub bouncer, he's better suited to not saying a word, just getting beaten up by James Bond, Batman or the Transporter.

Clearly you have no idea what you are talking about. He was the only one who didn't seem like an amateur in this movie. He totally stood out on screen and said his lines proper.

.. and clearly you know nothing about movies or acting as Tamer Hassan was by far the best thing about this movie and I came to IMDB today and was just going to post about only this

I thought he was kind of entertaining, if only for how over the top he was  Definitely not "well written" by any mean, but I thought he was kinda interesting/enjoyable to watch (even if not for the right reasons)

I thought he was one of the more entertaining characters in the film (villain-wise, of course). I liked his fight with Three Finger at the end (and although it may seem a little wrong, it was nice to see Three Finger avenge his son in that scene).

I agree. His performance in the movie is cringeworthy and his fight with three finger is underwhelming. The problem isn't he's the bad guy. Problem is he isn't bad enough... and also very stupid.
