'Novocaine' is an action-comedy film starring Jack Quaid as Nathan Caine, a bank manager suffering from CIPA, a condition making him unable to feel pain. This rare genetic disorder leads Nathan to live a cautious, mundane life until he develops a crush on a bank teller, Sherry. The film takes a jarring turn when a robbery occurs, prompting Nathan to engage in vigilante behavior. However, the execution fails, with the film mistakenly using excessive violence and gore for comedy, resulting in a tedious 110-minute runtime that leaves audiences numb rather than entertained.
The film, despite its hyperbole, fails to engage viewers with a tedious run time over 110 minutes, painfully showcasing the numbness of its protagonist.
Nate's journey is marked by his struggles with a disorder, leading him into absurd scenarios that ultimately lack credibility, making the film feel overly contrived.
