Novocaine

Reviews

• "Jack Quaid was born for a role like this. The actor’s unassuming cheerfulness provides the perfect comedic counterpoint to the film’s increasingly absurd gross-out action gags."
  - TheWrap
• "Belongs to the tradition of movies like "Crank", where the audience is invited to derive twisted pleasure from watching a heroic leading man get the crap beaten out of him in inventive ways."
  - ScreenCrush
• "Wickedly funny, audacious and wildly entertaining."
  - NYC Movie Guru
• "NOVOCAINE is the best action movie of 2025."
  - Dread Central
• "Novocaine is ELECTRIFYING! A heart-racing, pulse-pounding adrenaline rush that never lets up! Jack Quaid is effortlessly charming, Amber Midthunder steals every scene & your heart. Violent and incredibly funny, it’s the PERFECT date night movie!"
  - The Movie Podcast
• "It's hard to criticize a film that can both repulse and amuse, a film where you laugh while averting your eyes. Novocaine is that film—a raucous, non-stop, full-throttle slapstick comedy that makes The Three Stooges seem like a production of Swan Lake."
  - Original Cin
• "The film takes action-movie invulnerability to brutal comic extremes."
  - Slant Magazine
• "A fun and gory action comedy that gets a lot out of its premise."
