This is a musical starring Doogie Howser playing an aspiring super-villain who blogs. Yea, this movie is that random. But, it works! Neil Patrick Harris continues his resurgence in this oddball comedy/musical
(click here to add to your queue). It was really well acted, the songs were funny and the premise is so whacked-out that you can't help getting sucked in. It reminds me a bit of
Bubba Ho-Tep, it's a movie that on paper really shouldn't work but somehow really does. Dr. Horrible (Harris) is in love with the deceptively adorable Felicia Day and for a super-villain he really has a tender side, it's very charming.
You should really watch this, it's a good time. To be honest I never thought I'd be reviewing or recommending a musical on this blog, just not usually my thing. But, this one is worth it. 5 Stars!
