      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Dark Matter's intriguing ideas are spread a tad thin over its season-long runtime, but fans of foreboding sci-fi will find its residue addictively sticky.

      James Dyer Empire Magazine Not as ambitious as Foundation, nor as brain-taxing as Constellation, this 'what if?' series hits the spot nonetheless, maintaining Apple's status as the default home of thoughtful, adult-orientated sci-fi. Rated: 3/5 May 23, 2024 Full Review Gregory Wakeman Chicago Reader This sci-fi thriller has its missteps, but powerful leading actors give it depth and resonance. May 16, 2024 Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News “Dark Matter” asks us to consider our own dual natures and how they would be altered if our worlds were different. Rated: 3/4 May 15, 2024 Full Review Neely Swanson Beverly Hills Courier Although it’s a bloated nine episodes, there are an infinity of directions for it to go. Not a fan of the genre myself, Dark Matter successfully kept my interest. May 24, 2024 Full Review Jenny Nixon Common Sense Media The writing is a bit dry, but Dark Matter's cast is top-notch -- and the fairly brisk pace means viewers and characters are caught up on what's happening without too much meandering. May 22, 2024 Full Review Ruben Peralta Rigaud Cocalecas Joel Edgerton consistently grounds this high-concept plot, which jumps back and forth with increasing wildness.

      Joakim S Its just to dull, the writing is not good enough. Just a big nothing sandwich that doesnt really get a grip on you. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/30/24 Full Review Márlon J Amazing history, cast and production. Impossible dont feel empathy with the characters. If you sometimes like to look at your past and think about some decisions... how it affects you, people around you... and how sometimes we are at crossroads of life... well dont miss this series and Alice Braga that i luv:D Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/29/24 Full Review Glenn C Some interesting ideas. But some bad writing kills this. Joel Edgerton isn't great. Pretty bad/hard to see VFX. Jennifer Connelly is luminescent, but that's not enough to fix this. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/27/24 Full Review Audience Member Yikes is all I can say, first ep was interesting, second lost me, next two were a bore. If you can’t redeem a series after almost four hours of television it’s not worth watching. Crazy, and not in a good way, crazy that makes you think “who tf wrote this and how did it get through?” Such a disappointment released right after constellation. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/27/24 Full Review ross c Its been done .. episodes drawn-out .? Still worth watching .. what is it with TV SHOWS AND MOVIES NEED TO HAVE . F**K . IN EVERY SENTENCE .... Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/27/24 Full Review THE Dark L Mind-blowing. Emotional. Incredible VFX and production design. The best sci-fi show Apple has ever done and maybe one of the best ever. The actors do a wonderful job bringing the story to life. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/26/24 Full Review Read all reviews
