Novocaine (2025)

Nathan Caine can't feel pain.

2025 110 Mins ★ 6.8/10

Forget supersoldier serums or special forces training; Nathan Caine’s superpower is a rare genetic disorder called Congenital Insensitivity to Pain (C.I.P.). A sheltered, ultra-cautious bank executive living on liquid diets to avoid biting his own tongue off, Nate’s fragile, heavily regimented life is shattered when a crew of psychotic bank robbers—led by a delightfully unhinged Ray Nicholson—storms his branch and kidnaps his co-worker crush, Sherry (Amber Midthunder). Driven by pure adrenaline and romantic obsession, Nate abandons his safety protocols and transforms into a human battering ram. What follows is a deliciously gratuitous, high-octane cross-city chase where Nate takes point-blank gunshots, deep third-degree burns, and shattered bones straight to the chin without flinching, using his total immunity to physical agony as an brutal, unpredictable weapon to dismantle a criminal syndicate.
