Jack Quaid is gone in this rough action comedy because he cannot feel pain.
Can it really be a coincidence that a film entitled “Love Hurts” has recently started in our cinemas and that the painless “Mr. No Pain” suddenly can also get started there?
“The Boys” star Jack Quaid can be massacred in his role of the average type of Nate and with a smile on his lips he inserts the worst abuse. However, he has a good reason to grow beyond himself because his dream woman Sherry (Amber Midthunder) was taken hostage. Now the lanky suit hunt after the heavy boys to free the beloved kidnapping victim again and gets into ever more hopeless situations, which suffers his physical appearance massively.

How do you live with analgesia?
First of all, however, we get insights into a life with analgesia – according to the medical concept for sensitivity to pain – and learn, for example, that Nate only consumes pureed food, otherwise he could errone with the tongue when chewing. A few other precautionary measures are also very surprising for us normal pain-suffering lines: “Mr. No Pain” is a watch alarm so as not to forget to empty his bladder regularly-otherwise it could burst. In general, the film is cleverly and takes the first half hour to bring the two main characters closer to us before the following permanent action does not allow anyone to take a breather.

Figured scream of pain
Jack Quaid is a knight without fear and pain in his element: The house of a paranoid bomb hobbyist seems to have been built for him, because it was peppered with a wide variety of traps, which he naturally promptly stumbles into, which is why his body is getting more and more holes in the most inappropriate spots. But it is also still absurd: our hero can deliberately torture himself from a villain to win time and, in the most gruesome mutilation that are inflicted, to screams of joking.

Hameling injuries?
However, joy over painlessness is inappropriate, because the injuries therefore weigh just as difficult: the bones are broken, the skin remains burned, the wounds bleed no less, torn parts of the body are gone, blood poisoning and wound fire. An emergency doctor in the audience would shake his head well -stunned about what is happening on the canvas, and as a medical layperson I also come to the conclusion that this film could be seen as a dangerous trivialization of injuries. So please do not imitate (but that probably goes without saying)! Sensitivity to pain or not – in particular, Nate's hands must have had such serious impairments after some time that they would no longer be operational.

Guest star from “Spider-Man”
Apparently Nate still has a second genetic peculiarity: absolute healing forces. But the guy is in good company: his brutal opponents feel pain, but are apparently also indestructible. Although someone had to have blessed it for a long time, the person concerned takes a wild escape and can live out his lust for murder in bitter duels. The film even has a guest star to offer: Spider -Man friend Jacob Batalon once again turns out to be a good buddy and – but only a lot of late – comes by as a savior in need. Incidentally, Amber Midthunter can only really show in the second half of the film what is in her, while comedian Matt Walsh with his sayings as a frustrated cop at short notice ensures loosening.
In any case, the starting situation of “Mo. No Paine” results in skilful action of the most crazy variety. The characters are lovingly characterized, an unpredictable plot twist surprises us in half-time before it even exaggerates the Hau-drauf-final-you have the impression that not only the main character, but also the laws of the stress ability of the human body are violated.
