Dr. Horrible, a budding super-villain whose plans for world domination continually go awry. His two goals: getting accepted into the Evil League of Evil, and working up the guts to speak to his laundromat crush Penny, played by Felicia Day (The Guild). The only thing standing in his way is Captain Hammer, Billy's superhero arch-nemesis played by Nathan Fillion (Firefly). With one big score, Billy could get into the E.L.E. and earn the respect of Penny, but only if he can keep her away from the dashing Captain Hammer...

A must have for anyone...Mar 11, 2010
This DVD is a definite must have for anyone, anywhere. It doesn't matter if you prefer comedy, drama or sci fi, Dr. Horrible (and company) has it all. And don't let the fact that it is done all in song scare you away, it's done so well that my friends who hate musicals with every fiber of their being LOVED it because the actors were all on top of their game, the plot grips your attention and because it was an hour of plain old fun. Even the special features are hilarious...and there's even a second commentary done in song--you'll laugh so hard, you'll cry. My only hope is that they do the long rumored sequel because something this good deserves awesome follow-up. Nathan Fillion and Neil Patrick Harris should do EVERYTHING together for the rest of their careers.
Fun and Catchy!Mar 09, 2010
"Doctor Horrible's Sing-Along Blog" is a musical about a mad scientist (Doctor Horrible) who wants to make it into this evil league, but so far all of his plots have been foiled by Captain Hammer. We end up seeing two plot lines that twist together in this story, as Doctor Horrible's actually a normal guy named Billy when he's not bent on causing evil. Billy has fallen in love with Penny and wants to get into the evil league and take over the world. He figures that it'll be easy enough, but Captain Hammer not only ruins his plan but steals his girl too.
The cast is simply amazing! If you love Neil Patrick Harris, Nathan Fillion, and/or Felicia Day then this is the movie for you! I have to say that Nathan Fillion's portrayal of Captain Hammer was even reminiscent of his role on "Castle" at time which made it even more fun! Neil Patrick Harris is just simply wonderful in this! And though Felicia Day doesn't seem as well known as the other two in the cast, she is simply wonderful to watch and listen to her sing! I absolutely love her in "The Guild" and in this!
I have to say that I didn't set the bar very high when I was told about this, but I watched it and thought that it was simply fantastic! It's fun and the tunes totally stay with you. I have the soundtrack on my iPod now! I'd recommend this for people who like either anything that this fantastic cast is in or if you don't know any of the actors then it'd be a safe bet if you like musicals and comics ;)
This is a very fun superhero-type of show.
It has a very different feeling though, I think, because I found myself rooting for Doctor Horrible instead of Captain Hammer.
Plus, it's Joss Whedon's so you know it's pure brilliance :D
If you like Joss Whedon, you must own thisMar 03, 2010
The songs are great; my kids downloaded every single one from iTunes. The story is fun but not without meaning. Neil Patrick Harris, Nathan Fillion, and Felicia day are fantastic. Contains Joss Whedon's trademark combination of humor and tragedy.
Really funny...Mar 02, 2010
I didn't expect this to be as funny as it was, but it is really great. The soundtrack is funny and catchy and Neil Patrick Harris does a great job in this "sing a long blog" as Dr. Horrible and Nathan Fillion a.k.a "the Hammer" (the reason I watched this in the first place) is the perfect non-perfect hero . I could watch this a thousand times and still think its funny. I loved it...

 Nice quirky musical---just seemed to end too soonMar 02, 2010
This was a fun ride, filled with great songs performed with flair by Harris, Fillion, et. al. It would be more fun to see it with a group of fans with the appropriate props, of course, but it's still very entertaining on its own if you're by yourself. Joss Whedon continues showing off the musical talents that he first regaled us with in the BTVS musical episode and Firefly. There is also a rather somber conclusion to this short movie; it left me wanting more. Maybe a sequel or two?
