Following a press tour that showcased Jack Quaid progressively more battered at a Clippers game, the R-rated action comedy "Novocaine" has hit theaters. Quaid, known for his role in 'The Boys,' stars as a man immune to pain, seemingly embracing roles that require him to be drenched in fake blood.
In her review for IGN, critic Lena Wilson notes that "Novocaine offers more depth than its gimmicky 'man who feels no pain' premise may lead you to believe," praising its "clever storytelling and character writing that reminds us of a time when seeing movies in theaters was just plain fun."
