I love Dany Boon and this movie is one of his best! I laughed a lot throughout the whole movie and enjoyed the silly fun.
For someone who likes french humor and who tries to stay in touch with the french culture it will be a good laugh. Dany Boon is as usual excellent and hilarious. Do not get fooled by relatively low rating of the movie. I can only assume subtitling could be mediocre which is often an issue in the versions for foreign audiences, especially when it comes to translating humor. If you know or learn French, even better for you. The movie manages to play with the language in a matter you won't be able to not burst laughing. While it isn't a masterpiece and sure is a light, not specially ambitious movie; it delivers exactly what from a comedy is expected. Lots of laugh, silliness and relaxation. For those who didn't get enough I recommend " Nothing to declare"
I watched this on cable and dear I didn't laugh so much for long time ago. Dany Boon wrote and directed this very amusing film. The story is invented in a very fantastic way that only Dany Boon succeeds to. His partner Kad Merad played with a high chemistry this doctor role. They are really a great team and it is always fun to see them together also in other comedies. The movie was never boring and as I have already mentioned very funny. Just see it. If you are looking for a great entertaining moment you should check it out. I am sure you won't regret. Even my family had lot of fun. 7/10
I highly recommend the other Bienvenue chez les Chti's or Rien à declarer.

Supercondriaque is, somehow, two movies thrown together - the titular hypochondriac comedy, and a mix-up immigration comedy - each of them might work perfectly on its own but the mix has a somewhat hollow taste, it's switching from silly comedy to social commentary to action to intelligent comedy to slapstick and back. None of the characters gets any depth since everyone of them has to act completely silly (= so silly it would feel displaced even in "Hangover") every few scenes to keep the convoluted comedy going, and as a result nothing and no-one gets taken seriously.
There are some really funny scenes in there and one or two good running gags, and there would even be something like a message if we cared about the characters, but as a whole this movie is like some soufflé without salt ... quickly forgotten, nothing of consequence.

It may seem to be a rather ordinary work from a nation that did quite well in production of excellent comedies. It helped to renew my blurred memories of my French vocabulary though. And I had some good laughs with my friends while watching it. I would say it is a film worth watching, especially when you are seeking to relax your tense nerves and do not care to follow a complicated plot.
