Review of Parallel

Parallel (II) (2018)
7/10
Fantastic technology in the hands of greedy losers
22 December 2020
Warning: Spoilers
I liked the premises of this film. Being an avid sci-fi fan I'm always fascinated at the idea of parallel universes and thus I had pretty high expectations of it. Alas, it turned out to be not so much sci-fi, but a character study of what would happen if a piece of fantastic technology falls in the hands of greedy losers. And, as expected, the results were catastrophic, mostly for them, although the they also managed to cause some damage to certain inhabitants of the parallel worlds.

Overall, the movie is done pretty good. But I cannot force myself to give it more than 7 stars because I was really disgusted to watch these miserable characters poking around with this wonderful discovery while being driven by their greed, stealing money, art ideas and finally even kidnapping somebody from the other world. Even though I'm going to mark this review as containing spoilers I stop here, to leave to viewers to get the whole picture. It's worth watching, but not more than one time.
