After a press tour featuring Jack Quaid progressively sporting more fake blood, particularly at a Clippers game, the R-rated action comedy "Novocaine" has hit theaters. Quaid stars as a man who can't feel pain, seemingly embracing roles that involve getting covered in blood.
In her IGN review, critic Lena Wilson highlights 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."
