Novocaine Avaliações & Comentários
- ThreeGs11 de abril de 2026Could have been so much better. Interesting idea, not the best execution or story.
- COCO11 de março de 2025Jack Quaid world domination and I’m here for it. It’s been a while since we’ve had a movie where a normal flawed dude reluctantly kick ass and gets the girl so it’s nice to see a perfect mixture of a quirky and cheerful version of John Wick with a touch of Kickass all over it. Even though the premise is pretty silly, the bloodshed throughout is more than enough to make up for it’s flaws. Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Jacob Batalon is in-fact 6’4 and looks like Jason Momoa.
- rampage9811 de abril de 2025I did like how they let the audience in on the fun with the pain that "should" have come. He couldn’t feel pain until he fell in love with a bank robber. Turns out heartbreak hurts more than bullets.
- Rayne thunder7 de abril de 2025Very attractive guy, idek remember wgat the move was abt he was so hot
- Fredc8330 de março de 2026Cool 👍👌
- Johann Sax10 de março de 2026Quite good movie, a bit too prédictible
- gilligan500019 de abril de 2025Over the top and completely ridiculous…but still a fun coming of age love story with some twists along the way. Think kick-ass guns akimbo nobody level of entertainment. If you’re into those, you’ll like this.
- MeghannB24 de abril de 2025Ok, hi, Jack Quaid. It's nice to see a new face in role that could have been lobbed over to Ryan Reynolds or Chris Pratt. The movie was fun, moved at a good clip, and had jarring moments of brutality and gore, which gave it an edge. The idea that the man had never tried pie in his lifetime seemed a bit far fetched, though. ;)
- Joey Pelicano9 de fevereiro de 2026A really awesome idea for an action movie that received B-movie treatment. The fights were executed to the idea perfectly but the rest of the story and writing seems to suffer from classic action movie tropes. If this had received enough care in pre-production, it could have been something special.
- yaman_nz4 de fevereiro de 2026I rate anything that has OMFG in the script like this.. no matter what it is.
- cultfilmliker11 de abril de 2025Nice comedic yelling and ragdolling lol really solid physical stuff overall. Some good bits! Are we tired of seeing Jack Quaid in this role yet? lol How are you going to open with that song? Ugh lol What - this dude’s never had sex? Absolutely no way. There had to be an Arrested Development fan on the writing team that put in that “Mr. Manager” line. How’s he running around doing all this with a chicken-fried hand lol Note: “I Believe In A Thing Called Love” is one of my favorite songs of all-time and even I think that placement was a little chsssy
- Scott Smith26 de abril de 2025A better than average revenge action comedy with a good twist. The Quaid kid did a good job acting in it, and there were some wild action and fight scenes. A good rock music soundtrack, too. Worth watching if you like these sorts of movies...and I do.
- Nishant Arora17 de junho de 2025*Novocaine* is a shot of pure, unadulterated adrenaline, turning its high-concept premise into a wildly entertaining and gleefully gory ride. It’s a film that knows exactly what it is and leans into its absurdity with bone-crunching, laugh-out-loud results. The Good: Jack Quaid is perfectly cast as the affable lead who can’t feel pain, and his charming, wide-eyed panic grounds the film’s increasingly chaotic action. The action sequences are brutally inventive, using the central gimmick to create some truly memorable and wince-inducing set pieces. The film’s energetic pacing and unapologetic embrace of slapstick gore make for a non-stop, fun-filled experience. The Bad: The central plot is admittedly thin, serving mostly as a vehicle to get from one outrageous fight to the next. The romantic subplot that kicks off the adventure feels underdeveloped and lacks a genuine spark, making the hero’s motivation feel a bit flimsy. Furthermore, while the central gimmick is fun, it can feel repetitive by the final act, and the film occasionally overstays its welcome. A perfect popcorn flick, *Novocaine* delivers a frantic and hilarious spectacle that’s painless to watch, even if it’s ultimately forgettable.
- tellum24 de abril de 2025A basic action movie with the twist that the hero takes massive amounts of damage but feels no pain. Some funny gags are done with the premise but in that way it’s very similar to Deadpool. A funny enough movie for a date night.
- jackmeat22 de abril de 2025My quick rating - 6.8/10. In Novocaine, directors Dan Berk & Robert Olsen deliver a satisfyingly twisted genre cocktail with equal parts action, dark comedy, and body horror-lite. Anchored by a surprisingly earnest performance from Jack Quaid, this film leans into the absurdity of its premise with confidence and style. The story follows Nate, a charmingly average guy with one very specific quirk: he cannot feel pain. It’s a rare neurological condition that has rendered him physically impervious to suffering—at least, on the surface. When his dream girl, Sherry (played with a believable wide-eyed sweetness by Amber Midthunder), is abruptly kidnapped, Nate is thrown into a violent, unpredictable underworld, where his condition becomes both his biggest weapon and a deeply unnerving liability. Yes, the “guy goes on a chaotic rampage for the girl of his dreams” trope is here in full force—following hot on the heels of Renner, which played with similar ideas. And yes, the damsel dynamic is growing a little tired. But Novocaine distinguishes itself by leaning hard into its offbeat tone. It’s aware of the cliché, and it toys with it enough to keep things from feeling stale. And always a welcome addition for comedic relief is his online gaming buddy, Roscoe, played by Jacob Batalon. Lars Jacobson’s script plays cleverly with Nate’s condition, particularly in the action scenes. There’s no gory splatterfest here, but the violence has a visceral impact—think bruised bones, burned flesh, and self-surgery scenarios that will make your stomach knot. It’s not graphic in the traditional sense, but it hits hard thanks to smart camera work and Quaid’s physical performance. Although that thumb scene...well, you'll see. The film finds a unique niche between cringeworthy injury and deadpan humor, and it thrives there. What really sells it is the pacing. This movie moves. There’s no time for emotional wallowing or needless exposition—every beat pushes Nate deeper into a world that’s more cartoonishly brutal than realistic. There are twists, of course, and most of them are deliberately ridiculous—bordering on parody—but that’s part of the appeal. You don’t watch Novocaine expecting logic. You watch it to see how far Nate will go, what weird weapon he’ll improvise next, and how many times he can fall down a flight of stairs before even he starts to wonder if he should stop. Production-wise, the film is clean and focused. The action choreography feels tight, and the editing is sharp, helping the comedy land without undercutting the intensity. The scenes are thoughtfully constructed—even the more outrageous moments have a strange precision to them. Jack Quaid proves he’s got leading-man chops, especially for roles that ask for physicality and charm with a dash of madness. His performance grounds the story just enough to make it emotionally engaging, even when the script veers into the bizarre. Novocaine isn’t trying to be a masterpiece of psychological depth. It’s a wild, occasionally painful ride that blends absurdity with action in an entertaining and surprisingly effective way. It knows what it is, and it doesn’t flinch, literally or figuratively.
