A charming and often invigorating reimagining of key Looney Tunes characters.

“Novocaine” is a berserk romp of a time.

Absolutely delicious, a svelte piece of entertainment that feels like a vintage yarn yet very much represents our own current anxieties.

It’s not a difficult film to lambaste.

The always-stellar André Holland once again adds so much to a production, imbuing every scene with a deep vein of melancholy.

What promises to be a droll mixture of off-kilter laughs and bloody mayhem turns into a confounding tonal mess.

Noah Parker’s work as Jeff is note-perfect creepy, while Aurélia Arandi-Longpré does exceptional, nuanced work.

Sweet and earnest, this is the kind of film that’s easy to wrap your arms around.

Clever and thrilling enough in bloody spurts, even if it never quite reaches its true potential.

Sometimes it’s just fun to watch someone know and deliver exactly what they want to give you, and do so with flying colors—bisexual lighting and all.
