I had read the Murakami short story that the film is based on and they practically took 20-30 pages and built a 140mins film around it. The end result is good. While it extends the story and provides a lot of background, it still keeps the essence and mystery of the story and lefts many of the questions unanswered. Pacing could have been tighter, but it’s a common issue with South Korean cinema. The leads are great and so is the cinematography which displays a different side of South Korea.

"Burning" is just another installment of a trend of arthouse movies showcasing extreme directorial prowess with a flaccid plot, unnatural dialog, and caricatures rather than characters. While I'll admit freely that the final scene was breathtaking, there was no resolution and Jong-soo was an awkward chore to watch for the majority.
