Just bad, just plain bad! Like Sliders this had the possibility to be great, but (also like Sliders) it was given the Gilligan's Island lost and never seem to find a rescue formula. The only time this formula ever worked (maybe it worked for LOST,but I could not stomach to watch that show) was with Gilligan's Island and Star Trek Voyager, and the only reason it worked for Voyager is because it had so many other things going for it. Sliders and Parallels are pretty much the same show, except Sliders made sense in that the device was something covert and Parallels chose the device as a building that shows up in every Multiple universe (no matter how advanced or ruined) with nobody noticing that it is so different or trying to live there/tear it down, etc. The other difference, it Parallels tries to be trendy, which pretty much sums up the target audience as a bunch of dumb kids.
Sliders, and even this movie, could have been great if they left the Gilligan's Island angle out of it. Just think how good it could be with people exploring the multi-verse and dealing with the personal and social conflict of different worlds while being able to return to their own.
Also, the ending sucks. It just ends, period. No closure, just a revelation that the annoying half-Asian chick is taking turns with her duplicates from other worlds to explore the multiverse.
