  Novocaine 2025

  ★★★ Watched 15 Mar 2025

  Had fun regardless, not every movie needs to be groundbreaking. Stupid and fun, this movie is stupid and fun and I had a great time watching it.

  Really liked it.

  The henchmen in this movie were absolutely delightful, Igor, my king.

  I’ve heard people voicing their relief that the movie wasn’t as dark as they expected it to be, but I’d argue the subject matter is bleak enough. The beginning montage of Anora’s night on the job was heartbreaking, and her treatment throughout was harrowing. 
  Her husband was one of the most hate-able characters I’ve seen since Joffrey, the cast did a fantastic job all around. 

  Despite the tone, this…
