This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

An immersive, hilarious, exciting, fun, must-watch show. I'll admit, it's not going to be for everyone. But, those that don't like it, might not have a pulse!

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")

Honestly, I never thought I would like this show. As a D&D player (and DM) myself, I've always thought that watching someone play without playing yourself to be extremely boring. 54 episodes later, I have to say: that was not the case with Critical Role.How can watching 8 people talk and roll dice make you laugh or cry?I've found that listening to Matt's descriptions would paint a picture before my eyes. It was just like watching a movie, only way better. Because fails are awesome too here. Characters are not always ready or prepared, they sometimes don't really know what to say. And that makes them more real. Through the players' voices, I can hear their characters. I've come to the point where i really believe that Ashley and Sam are gnomes, and Travis is a Goliath.This show made me want to be a better DM, and a better player. Matthew, I one day will be as prepared as you are! I know the chances of the cast ever reading this, but if any of you ever do, thank you for letting me watch and have fun with you.

This is easily the best visual experience of my life. The connection the community feels to each other, to the people in the show, and to the game itself is incredible and I've been hooked -- nearly obsessed -- since the first half hour I saw. The experience is one that will resonate with you throughout your life and I sincerely hope this group continues in one form or another for decades to come.This is the first and only time I've been tempted to send something to the actors, and even with only a fan letter I am waiting on pins and needles to know if they even got the letter.Less than three you guys!P.S. Includes more than a bit of swearing, some inappropriate humor and lots and lots of nerdiness.
