Novocaine (2025)

 

Gimmicky and way over-the-top. It went from implausible to outright silly. The bodily harm became exhausting. He may not feel pain, but finishing this movie was a real one. 

Rating: D+

The Purge: Election Year (2016)

A more compelling story than the first two films, with a few returning characters. Still a lot of senseless violence around a premise--the purge--that doesn’t make a whole lot of logical sense. Of course, I choose to watch anyway.

Rating: C

Get Out (2017)

I’d heard Get Out was messed up, but the fun was in discovering just what kind of messed up we were dealing with. The closest thing I can compare it to is the film Red State. That’s a compliment. Go see it.

Rating: B
