This film is unwatchable. Did a blind buy and woof.

An easy film for critics and movie watchers to dismiss as too ordinary. The film is a sketch of how society treats its veterans in combination with a family drama and action. A solid, sad soundtrack, great acting performances and realistic storyline great a compelling sit through. If you like this movie it's because you have patience and appreciation for movies that tell a story. Not a lot of pops and bangs, but enough existential questions to compensate. A movie to watch alone with a good whiskey.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

I enjoyed the movie and am surprised of the rank it got. It is kind of slow paced but I felt that was to give the feel of what the characters.were going through. Moments it was loose but I would recommend this movie.

Slow to start , however it becomes an emotional rollercoaster . And as a veteran it elicited powerful and a dark empathy. This movie Tiks all the boxes although for action fans it would be found lacking . Instead the lions share of the violent action occurs within the characters. This is a great story , and fine actors tastefully revealing the realities of war and the toll it can take on the innocent.

There is action in this movie but it is hardly an action movie...the themes of displaced soldiers with PTSD and a father-son relationship impacted by that are the center of the movie. Worthington is great and the actor who plays the teenage son really portrays the struggle amazingly well.

What I like about this movie is the nature of Sam Worthington's character... It's a fresh take.

Los Angeles Times

“Transfusion” is 25% slam-bang genre film and 75% melancholy character sketch — a balance tilted too far to the latter.

Guardian

The film is supposed to be dramatically engaging rather than pleasurable – but it’s only occasionally the former.

Rated: 2/5

Spectrum Culture

Familiar yet compelling, it works far more effectively as a somber character drama than as a crime film, and is better for it.

Cinemalogue

Lacking the dramatic heft to supplement its more thoughtful ambitions, this Australian thriller offers a formulaic exploration of familiar themes.

Despite decent acting the film is still only lackluster.
