A massive and intricate puzzle, the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> is shocking and unsettling, but doesn\u2019t quite satisfy in the end.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    \u201cDark Matter\u201d\u00a0opens in present-day Chicago. Jason Dessen (Joel Edgerton), a scruffy physics professor, is living an unremarkable but happy middle-class existence with his wife, Daniela (Jennifer Connelly), and their teenage son, Charlie (Oakes Fegley). After a night out celebrating his friend Ryan\u2019s (Jimmi Simpson) prestigious <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/sciencee\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"5\" title=\"Science\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">science<\/a> award, Jason is beaten and abducted, awakening in a parallel universe where he thrives professionally and monetarily as a rockstar physicist. However, instead of the warmth of his family, he comes home to his live-in girlfriend, Amanda (a stellar Alice Braga), who is overwhelmed by his sudden reappearance. By the end of Episode 1, \u201cAre You Happy in Your Life?\u201d\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0clear to the audience that OG Jason has been kidnapped and replaced by the Jason Dessen living in this alternative reality.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    As the series unfolds, the polished but less-tempered Jason2 attempts to walk in OG Jason\u2019s shoes. Yet, small details like a nut allergy and a flossing habit begin to alert Daniela that something is very off with her husband. In Jason2\u2019s world, the OG Jason bonds with Amanda and begins piecing Jason2\u2019s scheme together. Unfortunately, getting back to the life he\u2019s always known proves to be more mentally and physically taxing than he initially thought, especially because\u00a0Leighton (Dayo Okeniyi), the billionaire techie Jason2 works for, isn\u2019t too keen to let his prized scientist out of his grasp.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    A lot of the concepts in \u201cDark Matter\u201d work well. Edgerton is impressive in his depictions of both versions of Jason. Though their differences are subtle, they are distinct enough to differentiate the pair easily.\u00a0 Moreover, as OG Jason and Amanda <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">travel<\/a> to varied parts of the multiverse in search of his true home, alternative versions of Chicago, from glossy and spectacular to apocalyptic and devastating, are showcased. With set production spearheaded by Patricio M. Farrell, these universes are all beautifully rendered. Also, on OG Jason\u2019s quest, he encounters various versions of Daniela, each as intriguing and impressive as the last, a testament to Connelly\u2019s talent.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Unfortunately, as fascinating as the character studies within \u201cDark Matter\u201d\u00a0are, the scientific aspects \u2013 especially regarding Jason2\u2019s magical multiverse traveling machine, The Box, take away from the story\u2019s core. Since sci-fi and physics jargon aren\u2019t exactly digestible for the average viewer, the audience is repeatedly shown the inner workings of The Box, which involves an injectable drug called ampoules, a terrifying and twisted corridor and the would-be multiverse-traveler trying to have total control over his subconscious. As a result,\u00a0some chapters feel sluggish, overlooking big themes and leaving other characters in the show, including Blair (\u200b\u200bAmanda Brugel), Daniela\u2019s best friend, to languish under half-baked arcs. As a first-time showrunner and the show\u2019s creator, it appears Crouch was reluctant to leave any stone unturned.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Across nine episodes, both Jasons confront their choices and regrets. However, Episode 6, \u201cSuperposition\u201d\u00a0is a standout. As Jason2 begins to see the imperfections in OG Jason\u2019s \u201cidyllic\u201d life, the original Jason and Amanda explore a universe that provides them some semblance of peace and a new beginning. Even with The Box and the science of it all hanging in the background, the episode finally gives the actors their due. Because \u201cDark Matter\u201d\u00a0is violent, bleak and a bit repetitious, \u201cSuperposition\u201d\u00a0offers viewers a much-needed reprieve.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    As intriguing as \u201cDark Matter\u201d\u00a0is, the stories and timelines become more convoluted as the show presses on. While the viewers and Jason2 are several paces ahead of OG Jason for much of the series, things slide off the rails by Episode 8, \u201cJupiter,\u201d\u00a0as viewers realize things aren\u2019t exactly as they appear. Consequently, what could have been a welcomed twist feels like a letdown.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    When Crouch published his novel nearly a decade ago, fewer movies and TV projects centering multiverses existed. Since then, films like \u201cEverything Everywhere All at Once,\u201d\u00a0the Marvel Cinematic Universe and shows like\u00a0Starz\u2019s\u00a0\u201cCounterpart\u201d\u00a0have made these concepts more commonplace. Though \u201cDark Matter\u201d\u00a0is fine, it could have been genuinely thrilling if Crouch had trusted his audience without an extensive roadmap, letting his material and the stellar performances from the actors speak for themselves. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    <em>The first two episodes of\u00a0\u201cDark Matter\u201d premiere May 8 on Apple TV+\u00a0with new episodes dropping weekly on Wednesdays.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
