Not sure if this is the right fit?

What works best is its sustained moral thought experiment—what you would change when given do-overs—delivered with wry melancholy rather than spectacle. Limitations include repetitive beats (similar choices resurfacing) and little interest in scientific explanation, so readers expecting action or hard sci‑fi answers will feel let down.”
