The director of Armie Hammer’s upcoming film “Citizen Vigilante” is calling BS on a report claiming the actor hated the final product … telling us it all stems from criticism about his polarizing movie.

Uwe Boll tells TMZ … Armie attended the distributor’s screening of the film at the American Film Market, participated in multiple interviews promoting the film … and even led the Q&A at the film’s first public screening in Los Angeles.

Doesn’t sound like someone who hated the film.

The German director says a recent report from Puck — citing sources claiming Armie was appalled by the final cut and even “cried” because the final product was “hateful” and “disgusting” — is false.

Uwe tells us … AH was a joy to work with, and this is all just noise because the film — banned from Germany for its strong anti-immigration and anti-Muslim messaging — is polarizing.

The director adds … “Some people will love it, others will disagree with it – that is true of many films. My job as a filmmaker is to tell the story I set out to tell, and audiences can decide for themselves.”
