A guy named Frank Born has constant dreams in which he is a suave superspy a la James Bond (hence the title). His doctor recommends some days of vacation for peace and quiet, but wouldn't you know it, he is mistaken by the Americans, the Russians, the Chinese and basically everyone else for an actual secret agent, and gets involved in an adventure with a beautiful woman named Hata Sari who IS an actual secret agent. As I stated in my one-line summary, the title is the cleverest joke of this German Bond spoof; there may be two or three more minor chuckles here and there, but certainly not enough for a 90-minute film. The most positive thing I can say about "Bonditis" is that the chemistry between the two leads is actually kind of sweet. The film is not really worth tracking down, however. *1/2 out of 4.

Plodding spoof
Leofwine_draca30 July 2022
A random Bond spoof from Switzerland, of all places, and be warned that this one is very silly indeed. It follows a Bond impersonator with psychological issues as he gets involved in a plot involving the usual criminal masterminds and femme fatales, and it's all very bizarre and low budget. At least in the English version I watched I'd say that the humour doesn't translate too well and a plodding pace doesn't help much either.
