Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog

Now some people might say that this is not a movie, but it is I tell you! This movie was shown to me by Spencer and I have to give him a lot of credit, this movie is fantastic. The movie is about Dr. Horrible (Neil Patrick Harris) as he tries to get into the Evil League of Evil, which is a very high league of super villains. It sounds foolish at first, but it is amazing. The acting is very well done. Dr. Horrible has a crush on a girl named Penny (Felicia Day) who he sees at the laundromat weekly. He accidentally hooks up his nemesis Captain Hammer (Nathan Fillion) and Penny up during one of his heists. Dr. Horrible must figure out how to get his dream girl and defeat Captain Hammer.

The movie is a musical, I forgot to mention that. The songs are hilarious and very well done. One might not think Neil Patrick Harris has a good voice, but he actually does. The songs are highly amusing and very funny when one listens to the lyrics of the songs. My personal favorite is either “A Man’s Gotta Do”, or “Brand New Day.” They are probably two of the best songs in the movie. I have come to love Dr. Horrible to the point that I have made my parents watch it, though their lack of humor made it less funny for them than myself. I would recommend this movie to people 100% and even if you are like my parents and do not have a very good sense of humor you will still enjoy it, just not as much as I have.

    Nothing about how this was written during the writer strike on a skeleton budget?

    No mention of the Emmy it won?

    No mention of the director? (Which I think we should start requiring)

    Also, expand upon "The acting is very well done."

    Good post.

    P.S. I added links to the IMDB's of the actors. You already had them in parentheses so they were begging to be linked.

    I finally got to watch this and loved it! Took me a bit to get into it, but I think it was my mood at the time more than the movie itself.

    I highly recommend that people watch the bonus features as well. I had an even greater appreciation for the film after listening to ll that went into its creation.
