This is my Dark Matter Apple TV Plus Series Review

[berayahyahudi]

Wow, so none of the comments are actually about the review of Dark Matter? Wow! Thanks for the breakdown . You definitely gave some great insights and now I can go into it with a tempered expectation!

[CryptoJones]

Since I have read the book I might just wait till the last 7 episodes are released and then binge it. I hate waiting week to week.

[DavidMDevich]

I haven’t read the book (despite it being on my shelf for many months now), but after seeing the first two episodes I’ll definitely be looking forward to the weekly episode drops. As you described, it’s not perfect — such as one particularly frustrating element regarding a character’s lack of situational awareness which, thankfully, was resolved by the end of the second episode — but I’ve bought in based on the interesting premise and the execution so far. Apple kinda doesn’t miss with their original series (i.e., For All Mankind, Servant, Black Bird, Masters of the Air) so I’m expecting this show to be, at the very least, sufficiently entertaining / thought provoking to catch week to week.

Great review as always, Austin!

I wasn’t a fan of 3 Body Problem; I’m hoping this is much better. I would rather binge this one but I need to catch up on Sugar.

[CryptoJones]

I'm glad it's sticking so close to the book so far.

I watched DARK Matter for the first two episodes. It was like watching the old Soap Operas. The same stilted conversations, rehearsed tired lines, same expressions... It suuucked !

If there ever was a series that the hooked noses of Hollywood want to emulate, it would be "FOUNDATIONS". Breathtaking in its stories, acting, videography, costumes.🎉🎉🎉. Reminds you of the old Roman Empire.

Were you going to do a review for Dead Boy Detectives?

[jbborg]

Started with no preconceived notion of what it would be. Tried to judge it on its own merits. The only thing that bothered me was that Jennifer Conley looked like she lost a lot of weight since I saw her in Maverick. She is a good actress and I worry that she is okay. Enjoyed your review. Thanks

[WhytheBookWins]

Great review! I agree with a lot of your points at least with the first 3 episodes that I have seen so far. And as of right now it is very faithful to the book!

[milestrombley]

I heard the novel is insane like Rick and Morty, but serious. That's what made interested in this show.

[ramzanreviews]

I was waiting for this so much. will be watching on Sunday

[ScoreGuru]

Just watched episode 1. was absolutely underwhelmed. What a boring pilot episode for a sci Fi show.
Watching the rain outside my window was more interesting

[datacorz]

As a book reader i have no complaints. The shit starts hitting the fan after they enter the box, so...

Buckle up, Dorothy, coz' Kansas it's going bye-bye.

[aliarshad]

Yeah I am not watching it thanks for saving my time

[tabansteintv]

What a good ad for this show. Nicely done.

[jonathanclough]

This show sucks so badly it made me hate the book, which I'd read a few years ago and liked. It's too gloomy, lacking in any humour and most unforgivable it's boring. Acting is meh, main character just mopes around with a face like a slapped arse. Going to cancel apple subscription, there's no good shows.

[jefp]

Im looking foward to this one...But please dont make excuses for poor lighting in movies/tv series. The skill is in making the scene visible to the viewer whilst conveying a sense of darkness. If the viewer is straining to make out what's going on in the scene thats a fail, pure and simple. Sadly its become very common these days.

[mrlij]

Jennifer Connelly. is all i can say, lol

[mercurialjohn]

I hated the book vehemently. Usually i am fine with conveniences and plot holes, but the book had way too many for it not to be frustrating. Also characters make decisions that are stipid to the point of unbelivability. I HATE the book so, so much. It is a she because the mystery of the sci fi elementduring the novel's beginning and its possibilites to where it could go was gripping.

1 min into “review” sounds dumb no thanks
