Dark Matter - A Perfect Adaptation.
Dark Matter (2024)
I love the shows that make you question things in real life or is it real life? Like in this one you can relate ghosts, memory loss, deja vu and all. You can question if this is real?
Just give it 20 minutes and it'll take you in.
Starting minutes are set up of the life of Jason & family, which you will have to sit out. Look for details. Also it's easy because you have a very beautiful Jennifer Connelly in front of you, She's amazing throughout. Of course I've seen Jennifer Connelly before many times, but here, the strongest screen presence and no one's even close.
It is based on the highly acclaimed 2016 novel of the same name by Blake Crouch. He is also the showrunner & writer of the show and hands down one of the best adapted content. The book should be much better, next thing.
Cinematography was amazing, the blueish cold, dark timid tone to the original world and different for each world was differentiating. Music was alright, could've been better. Scientific elements, theories everything was right in place.
Joel Edgerton was outstanding as he played through ease of different emotions in different persons being one. And so was Jimmi Simpson and Dayo Okeniyi. They played multiple characters and that was so with ease.
Oakes Fegley, youngest of them all, he did fine in the little screentime he had. Alice Braga, another standout & she was also the part of tease for what to come. I heard they were working on another season. But it's a banger in itself.
Can't wait for the season 2. However they don't have source material for that. The original screenplay will be written for that. Also worried as second seasons aren't always good. But I hope this one turns out well. Watch the first if you haven't till now.
