# Novocaine - Parental Guide
This R-rated action thriller contains strong violence and language throughout, plus moderate sexual content and scary moments. The plot follows a man with no pain sensation fighting to rescue his girlfriend, but the intense action sequences and crude dialogue make it unsuitable for children under 17.
