Critics Consensus

Dark Matter: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) 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 Dark Matter: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) 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 Dark Matter: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) 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 Dark Matter: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Stephanie Malone Morbidly Beautiful A tense, thrilling, and emotional exploration of the choices that define our lives, it's a smart and terrifying sci-fi sizzler. If you’re looking for lightweight, casual viewing, look elsewhere. This show is designed to challenge and stimulate you. Rated: 4/5 Jun 11, 2024 Full Review Dark Matter: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Nestor Bentancor Nestor Cine Desde Hollywood Quality entertainment for both geeks and the masses, that radiates warmth while stimulating the gray matter. [Full Review in Spanish] Jun 8, 2024 Full Review Dark Matter: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Jared Mobarak Hey, Have You Seen ...? It's a high concept premise that knows how to leave the gimmick in the background as scaffolding so the characters can take flight between the lines. [It's] about the characters, not the machine. Rated: 8/10 Jun 7, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
