Resumen
Reviewers say 'Burning' delves into the Australian bushfires, examining climate change, political denial, and activism. It spotlights conservative politicians' roles in downplaying climate change and media misinformation. Personal stories of fire victims and young activists' efforts are highlighted. Some praise the film for its scientific evidence and historical context, while others critique its political bias and lack of balanced perspectives on bushfire causes and solutions.

Although some of the comments refer to the fact that the documentary is highly politicised if it is and if it intends to convince people that there has to be a change, indeed it must be. We do not realise it, but even from the anthropocentric point of view, let's do something to change this since if it has not affected us until now, it will affect us in the future and not so far away. Bravo for this documentary and bravo for the intention to change minds, tainted by dirty money and cheap politics.
Burning,
When you see the name you would think that this documentary is about fires in Australia and the people that had to deal with them.
But you would be wrong this documentary is a political theamed movie about climate change.
They say the words climate change way to often.. Yes we get it and I am a strong suporter of greener energy but they made it the main point of the documentary which should focus more on the fires.

This film was very well done in that it brought to light the truth on many questions I was asking about the whole ordeal of Australia being on fire the summer before this one. It was very informative and I appreciate that at least for once the truth was shown about a political figure (Morrison) instead of the documentary being flooded by positive propaganda on his behalf.
My two main issues with this film are 1- virtually no Indigenous Australians are shown (apart from a vacuous blanket statement made on their behalf-not by them- along with some happy propaganda in the film's opening, and an author's perspective in the last five minutes of the film). What was their perspective on the incident and what did they have to say? I suppose we'll never know. Not this time, anyway.
Secondly and lastly, I was absolutely appalled and disgusted when Daisy Jeffrey stated that climate change is {paraphrase} "the biggest catastrophe that has ever faced humanity." That comment was ignorant and quite narcissistic in itself- has Daisy never heard of colonization and scum like Leopold II of Belgium? It's individuals like that and those mentalities that decimated the Indigenous landscapes of the world, and have led us to this disparate place in which we find ourselves now. She should educate herself before making such crass, inconsiderate blanket statements, or she or her cause risk never being taken seriously by true activists and activism efforts.

I found it a scary yet interesting documentary, the scientists interviewed were reliable sources and I found it excellent overall. Definitely one to watch. Those poor animals burnt in the fire and poor people who lost everything due to the climate change denying politicians in govt. (Scott Morrison). I hope this makes people think about the way they vote.
I am not claiming climate change is a HOAX.
However, this documentary seems somewhat politically motivated.
I rather had a documentary with more facts than complaints against a certain administration.
