    ★★★

    Perfectly entertaining nonsense as long as you don't interrogate the internal logic of... pretty much anything going on. Ray and Samara should make one stupid movie together per year.

  • Novocaine

    Novocaine

    ★★½

    Hard to dislike! Also hard not to be kind of burnt out on the whole "John Wick is a genre now so we're gonna make a bunch of movies where a loser is John Wick" thing. I can't imagine going anywhere less ambitious with this *good* premise.

    Calling it early but 2025 should be the year of Ray Nicholson
