Burning's reviews
Media reviews
The Telegraph
This is Lee?s closest ever film to a thriller, but it defies expectations, offering multiple, murky solutions to a set of mysteries at once.
Indiewire
'Burning' keeps twisting back on itself, charting the path of a man waking up to the world, only to find that it won?t stop messing with him.
The Hollywood Reporter
This is a beautifully crafted film loaded with glancing insights and observations into an understated triangular relationship, one rife with subtle perceptions about class privilege, reverberating family legacies, creative confidence, self-invention, sexual jealousy, justice and revenge.
The Guardian
This is a gripping nightmare.
El Mundo
All the movie gets an intense climate and calm at the same time it turns itself to a weird drama with appearance and aspect of a thriller. Without doubt, a work of an intensity and fineness never considered.
El Periódico
'Burning' has virtues to tell with mystery, morbidity and climate the perverse story, but also has a serious defect which is its two hours and a half to tell it.
Vulture
There is so much fascinating, underplayed tension running through Burning.... I was a little let down, then, when Burning lost its steam in its second half.
