Vague Visages

Transference feels like a 13-and-under science fiction-themed board game. The pieces are clearly labeled, the color design fits the genre premise and the directions are confusing.

Daily Dead

What's unfortunate about this mishmash of plot threads is that any one of them could have made for a compelling movie.

Rated: 1.5/5

Transference throws a lot of interesting ideas at the audience, but these ideas never stick or have a coherent resolution.

Rated: 5/10

Battle Royale With Cheese

Transference is as dull and forgettable as its characters and really doesn't offer the audience any surprises. A little character development and bonding between the characters may have helped, but as far as the story goes, nobody should really care.

Cultured Vultures

Transference is a grim and joyless sci-fi tale that never quite manages to find its footing.

Rated: 3/10

Muddled and borderline incoherent, which is a shame as the concepts with a better writer and director may have made for a half decent movie.

I found it rough all the way through! It could have been an amazing movie. The concept of her powers affecting people around her is pretty unique as films go and they could have used more scenes with her abilities. That would have killed it in a good way. I also have zero clue how to take the ending. It wasn't clear and I know a LOT of other people watching will have questions too. The acting was decent but the lack of action made it hard to keep my attention

one of the messiest movies I've ever seen, and by messy I mean it made absolutely no sense and didn't even attempt a solid story line. I made a flixster account just to say how bad this was.

Broing, slow, don't know where it's heading. Basically a load of Canadian bullshxt. Stick with Firestarter or any of the other movies with similar formulas.
