    PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
    Iseerphia All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
    Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
    Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
    xeniafoertsch This show is everything. On the one hand it takes a special kind of show to want to watch it for 115 episodes. And this is not casual, have it on while doing the dishes, catch every other episode when you can kind of watching; this is transfixed, in front of the screen, tear-soaked, yelling at your laptop because no, why is everything falling apart? kind of watching.Before watching Critical Role I'd never really engaged with DnD and had no idea how fun, engaging and emotional it could be. Now after countless fits of rage tears, sad tears, happy tears, aww tears, or just general WTF moments, I am trying to find a DnD group in my area and cannot wait for my chance to play.This show is more enjoyable to watch than a lot of TV and a lot of films out there, and while it is only a group of people rolling dice on the internet, the connection you gain with the show and its characters, the immersion into Matt's world and the way everyone, be it cast, guest star or viewer, are made to feel so welcome and embraced, are truly one of a kind.Highly recommend, especially the episode with the cows. Still one of my faves.
    mcdermottj-26524 This show is an inspiring, authentic, and genuine experience that intimately brings you to a table of friends that over their now more than 100 episodes allows you to feel like part of their family and game. Rarely has any other form of media ever felt so immersive and inclusive, pulling the audience in to the story.
    Phillip I stumbled upon this web series quite early in its airing. It mainly caught my interest because of the cast. Nine voice actors in total, some of which you never knew you knew, make up this extremely well rounded and semi-professional improvisational group of adventurers. Developing a human being is no easy feat, and to make each and every character as unique as they are, it's astounding. With the cherry on top that is their years of experience in voice acting, it is a joy to listen to them all whenever they speak. Now what got me to stay was the absurdly well spun story, custom built by the dungeon master. The writing of this loose script is pulled off amazingly, and the only thing that would make it better is to have an actual cast behind the creator to voice each character. Don't get me wrong, he does do a fantastic job with each one, breathing life into every being in his world. From the characters born from both the players and the DM, comes the gut busting, tear jerking, most jaw dropping story that I have ever had the pleasure to witness unfold before me. As of writing this review today on the Thursday of May 19, 2016, I await the impending exhilaration of watching the newest episode, number 54. To all of those reading this, I have one question for you. Is it Thursday yet?
    dmnqwk 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.
