Rotten Tomatoes Freshness: 80%

Critic Consensus: “Getting an adrenaline shot from Jack Quaid and Amber Midthunder’s considerable charm while finding increasingly demented ways to utilize its concept, Novocaine is the opposite of a pain to watch”

Critic Consensus: “Sleek in design and spiked with dry wit, Black Bag is an exemplary espionage caper that lets movie stars like Cate Blanchett and Michael Fassbender do what they do best — light up the screen”

RT Freshness: 42%

Critic Consensus: “John Malkovich is clearly having a ball playing a nefarious pop musician in Opus, but unfortunately the rest of this thriller is too conceptually confused for the star’s fun to prove infectious”
