One of the greats
The stories are always good, riveting, and informative in some way. A good podcast to listen to or have as background noise.

One of those stories you never forget. I loved it in High School and I love it now. Poe is always a classic though, I've always loved his storytelling.

Podcast version of a Twitch show
The storytelling is top notch, but it's just the audio of the show, so you miss out on some stuff. If you like fantasy, great storytelling, and a top notch cast of voice actors, you can't go wrong with Critical Role. That said, I'd recommend watching some episodes on YouTube first, to get a feel for the visual stuff you'll be missing. 10/10 show, 8/10 podcast.

The world building was fantastic. The plot was very lackluster. The themes of interconnectedness and holding on to one's humanity are fantastic, but the storytelling left a lot to be desired.

"Probably Antonioni’s best film. It might be dated now. I’ve not seen it for some time but remember being stunned by the morality of it and the oblique, seemingly incomplete storytelling."
