Novocaine 2025
This was a solid watch with a few gripes.
The good: interesting idea, charming acting from Jack Quaid and Amber Midthunder, really fun fights scenes and a few badass hero moments (Kickboxer anyone?) make for an over all fun time.

Okay, The Monkey round two.
I enjoyed this far more the second time, now that I understand what I'm dealing with. The first time my brain was trying to make it something it wasn't.

It's silly in the way those shows were silly, and then it's dialed up to 11. Loved it.
