Burning Ratings & Reviews
- cultfilmlikerApril 22, 2026Pretty, good, pretty good! Ya blew it bud. Been there but you gotta get over it ….or not I have had “Burnin' For You” stuck in my head for a couple of years bc of my desire to see this film. Glad it can finally be put to rest Steven Yeun is just Korean Jon Hamm in 30 Rock in this Never a good sign when an emotionally repressed man busts out the laptop! Added to The Non-English Niche
- Caio César L. CoelhoMarch 3, 2026Anyone who has watched at least half a dozen thrillers can already predict what's going to happen. Honestly, any viewer with some experience in thrillers could imagine more worthy endings as well. Almost 2 hours and 30 minutes of a predictable story that drags on more than it should.
