Film Review
Dr. Horrible's Sing Along was a great film starring Neil Patrick Harris, Nathan Fillion and Felicia Day. This film was just wonderful with great comedy and also a great story line. It is very rare to find a musical film with such great comedy in the songs. Part of what makes this movie so funny is the fact that Nathan Fillion, a very strong, tough man, is singing near every single one of his lines. Dr Horibble's, Neil Patrick Harris, goals are to get into the Evil League of Evil and also, to win the girl of his dreams, or the laundromat, over. Dr. Horrible is a major genius and is inventing a freeze ray and he must steal the last thing he needs to make it. He is on his way to get the last thing and he sees Penny, Felicia Day, and gets easily distracted from his mission. Captain Hammer is Dr. Horrible's enemy. He is always getting in the way of Dr. Horrible and his goals. Captain Hammer is very strong and very attractive and knows it. He is very arrogant and basically all of his songs throughout the entire movie are about how great he is. Being the attractive man that he is, Captain Hammer steals Penny from Dr. Horrible. Because of all these things that Captain Hammer keeps getting in the way of Dr. Horrible decides that he must do something. In order to get into the Evil League of Evil he must murder somebody, and why not murder Captain Hammer? All he is a nuisance to Horrible and so why not get him out of the way? Neil Patrick Harris did a great job playing the evil genius and his voice was quite excellent in the film as well as Felicia Day. Nathan Fillion, although not the greatest singer ever, did an excellent job as well. The songs in this film had excellent lyrics and were sung to perfection. One of the reasons why this movie was so funny was because of the lyrics of the songs. However, making the movie more serious was the way the songs were sung so well. This is not a bad thing though. This movie was an excellent film and was very well directed. I definitely recommend this film to anyone who is in the mood for a short movie with a lot of laughs in it. It is guaranteed that you will walk away with a smile on your face. Excellent film!
