"Novocaine Viewing Guide: Showtimes and Streaming Options"

by Matthew Apr 07,2025

After a press tour that left Jack Quaid progressively more battered at a Clippers game, the much-anticipated R-rated action comedy "Novocaine" has finally hit theaters. Quaid, known for his role in 'The Boys,' stars as a man who feels no pain, seemingly embracing roles that get him drenched in fake blood.

In her review for IGN, critic Lena Wilson praises "Novocaine" for offering "more depth than its gimmicky 'man who feels no pain' premise may lead you to believe," highlighting the film's "clever storytelling and character writing that reminds us of a time when seeing movies in theaters was just plain fun."
