Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly Keep Overly Elaborate Sci-Fi Thriller ‘Dark Matter’ From Collapsing in on Itself: TV Review
Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly keep Apple TV+ "Dark Matter" from crumbling even when the weight of the twisted sci-fi series gets heavy.
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). Unfortunately, getting back to the life he’s always known proves to be more mentally and physically taxing than he initially thought, especially because Leighton (Dayo Okeniyi), the billionaire techie Jason2 works for, isn’t too keen to let his prized scientist out of his grasp.
