Novocaine

Novacaine is a fun action film with allot of pretty good kills but sadly the second act is where it peaks.
The first act is decent but i wouldn't call the chemistry of our main couple that good and the third act is just filled with cheezy generic lines.
The second act is very fun because the action in that act is good, that act is funny and it has the best ceo of sex lines(the ceo of sex is the funniest character like no joke)
If this film was made by more experienced action directors like david leitch it would probably be better but ultimately thats not the directors fault because i think this is a good step into the right direction.
I haven't seen they're previous film villains tho but i this film makes me think they'll make something special in the future.

I'm not especially into action movies, but when I am, it's fun and over-the-top action-comedies. Shoot Em Up is #1, and I have a soft spot for the Jason Statham-verse. Novocaine is a nerdy variant of that same strain.

I had to look away from some of the injuries though. Adorable Jack Quaid made me let my guard down, and then the next thing I know, fingernails are getting pulled off. Eek.
