  Novocaine 2025

  Watched 23 Mar 2025

  This was really fun. It's the exact sort of romp that the trailers sold it as.

  It's pretty action packed. Once the violence starts, there's basically no pauses between chase scenes, torture, and gleeful bloodshed. There's some hard-to-watch moments, which is a compliment.

  Covid-era right wing Christian persecution porn. When I think of the word "Infadel" I think of it as something you'd see as a tattoo across a skinhead's back. And that's basically what this movie is, but with a thin veneer of faux respectfully and pseudo intellectualism trying to cover up the meth teeth at its core.

  We get our one token Muslim good guy, as well as a lead character who ostensibly cares about the culture, so that we can…
