Like the determined team we know Vox Machina to be, Prime Video’s animated adventure returns with just as much bravado as its scrappy heroes, delivering another action-packed season with a charm that is impossible to resist (though you can certainly try).
-
Though the season stumbles at first, the changes it makes to the source material ultimately yield a triumph of adaptation. The last six episodes have that familiar Critical Role flavor, but there’s a freshness there, too – even if you've already seen the live streams that inspired the show.

While the frustrating juggle between various dramatic character arcs and narratives accounts for the show’s biggest flaw, the satisfying ending certainly atones for those sins, with the series rounding off on a much more optimistic and hopeful tone than the original livestream campaign.
