funny plotline+ amazing music - major problems= awesome movie!
Me and my daughter both love this movie! It has positive messages, great music, and no problems that I would notice in any other film. I showed it to my sister-in-law's family, who is very Christian, and they loved it too! I recommend this movie to all of my friends

Fun songs but scary death
(Spoiler alert) The older kids loooved it, have all the songs on their ipods. Penny's death was really shocking and scary for my 6 year old however. But it was zany fun that the older audience can enjoy.

Excellent, Hilarious, and Fun
Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog is a superb musical done in three fifteen minute installments. The story is sweet, funny, and faintly macabre. Violence is mostly mild but there is a death (not bloody, mostly sad). There are some references to sex (a man refers uses the word "hammer" to describe a body part) A little awkward flirting as well. Excellent for tweens and up.

Not for younger kids
I just had to add my two cents since CSM said it's appropriate for 10-year-olds. I think that's nuts. It is brilliant and wildly entertaining but the end is heartbreaking. I am sure my 11- and 9-year-olds would be crying their eyes out.
