[ SPOILERS AHEAD ⚠️ ]
While Dark Matter functions as a high-speed sprint that perfectly cures a dull weekend with its frantic pacing, the initial excitement eventually gives way to a repetitive cycle that exhausts its single sci-fi gimmick. I share my friend @myriam 's opinion on what begins as a gripping "page-turner" ultimately sputters into an underwhelming and surprisingly bland finale that fails to match the massive hype.
The experience is further dampened by a glaring logical loophole: the "Infinite Jason" problem. If the multiverse is truly infinite, it is mathematically impossible for hundreds of Jasons to stumble back into the exact same "home" reality at the same time; according to the book's own rules, there should have been infinite versions of that home for them to return to, making their sudden bottleneck in one house feel like a forced plot convenience rather than sound science.
