This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Not even bad in a good way

A Brilliant Conflict

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

I have never written a review before on IMDb - I'll make an exception for this one. I was looking for something fantasy-related to watch with the feeling that I already had seen everything worth watching (which obviously isn't true, but gives you the PoV - I'm quite the nerd). And then - out of the blue I stumble onto Critical Role. And within 10 minutes of the first episode in-game, I was hooked. Totally, utterly lost. As for today I'm only 5 episodes in and this is pure genius... I love it so much that I'm actually in pain for missing it being broadcast live. I've never played D&D myself, but I have experience in MERP, so that gives basic idea of how the mechanic works and now without a RP party I've actually dug out from the dust my old MERP rulebook and dices and for real -- atm playing alone. Just because I want to play soooo much. And maybe one day I'd become as great as M. Mercer as the DM. But he's absolutely... diamond. Even more epic than Trinket.So be warned: if you're a RPG!nerd without a group, this might cause moderate/severe withdrawal symptoms.10/10, I've never seen a movie or series like this. (Scanlan sings in the distance "Nothing compares to U")

Critical Role is an excellent display of just how much fun you can have playing the classic 'pen and paper' game of Dungeons and Dragons. Bringing the old radio plays from the 20s into a modern day setting (the internet) these highly talented voice actors all inject fun, enthusiasm and entertainment into their characters.Matthew Mercer (Halo 4, Diablo 3) takes on the role of the Game Master, the person responsible for maintaining the story, who guides the players through their journey in a world of his creation. Every shopkeeper, tavern owner and wandering monster is brought to life by his quirky and intelligent style.On occasion the story can wane due to the size of the party and due to the budgets available to web shows the sound quality will sometimes go awry I was unable to rate it as a 10, but the quality of voice acting involved will rival any movie, TV show or video game. If you love playing the game itself or want to pick up some helpful tips this show is not something you can afford to miss.

One of the many things you must see before you die. Preferably Live. Do you like D&D look no further. In the vision of Matthew Mercer we follow our heroes in the quest of entertaining us. The gang of Vox Machina: The accountant Vex cries when the gang spend to much money. Her twin brother Vax is the sneaky backstabbing kind. Grog is the fierce Goliath with an heart of gold. Pike is the true-believer of the gang and she is also paladin with a strong healing touch. Percy is the tinker of the gang creating deadly things of use. Scanlan is the gigolo and bard and the gangs jester. Keyleth the Elven Druid of many shapes and she got a wonderful laugh. Tiberius the Sorcerer he is from Draconia.Critter and Vox Machina Fan for life.The toothy swede.

9 voice actors get together and play Dungeons and Dragons, live, for our entertainment. The voice acting experience of everyone involved is outstanding and they have played these character for the better part of 2 years and so they are truly emotional when one of their party is on the brink of death; REAL TEARS PEOPLE! If you're a fan of fantasy and great story telling, if you were ever embarrassed by your basement hobby, if you wanted to learn about table top role playing, but, didn't know where to go, I highly recommend Geek & Sundry's Critical Role. I laugh, I cry, I RAGE! But, mostly, I love, love, love Critical Role. By far the most genuine and entertaining show out there at the moment.#Critter4Life10/10 all the feels.
