After a press tour that saw Jack Quaid progressively more battered at a Clippers game, the R-rated action comedy "Novocaine" has hit theaters. Starring Quaid as a man who feels no pain, it seems like the 'The Boys' alum is no stranger to being drenched in fake blood. In her review for IGN, critic Lena Wilson praises "Novocaine" for offering "more depth than its gimmicky 'man who feels no pain' premise may lead you to believe," highlighting its "clever storytelling and character writing that reminds us of a time when seeing movies in theaters was just plain fun."
