I hadn't heard about the 2022 movie "Hypochondriac" as I sat down to watch it. But I will say that the synopsis for the movie sounded interesting enough, and also the movie's cover/poster seemed interesting. And with it being a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give "Hypochondriac" a chance.
But wow. Just wow.
This movie was an incredible swing and a miss of epic proportions.
The storyline in the movie, as written by writer and director Addison Heimann, fell entirely short of providing me with any sense of entertainment, so it was a real struggle to suffer through this slow paced and pointless narrative. And to make it even worse, nothing thrilling or interesting happened as the movie trotted on in a monotonous pace.
Granted, I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in "Hypochondriac", and that is usually something I enjoy when I watch a movie. However, the actors and actresses in this movie stood a snowballs chance in Hell of delivering anything worthwhile or wholesome on the screen, because the script was just hopelessly devoid of any such thing.
Now, "Hypochondriac" is listed as a horror, thriller and drama, well forget about this being a horror movie, unless counting boredom beyond belief as horror. As for the thriller aspect of the storyline, well it could be classified as a thriller if you stretch the term loosely enough.
This is not a movie that I would recommend you waste your time, money or effort on. Some of us suffered through this ordeal so you don't have to.
My rating of this disappointing movie lands on a two out of ten stars.
