If you are willing to turn a blind eye to the inherently hackneyed nature of "The Burning Plain," though, the film turns out to be somewhat rewarding.

Critic's Notebook
Rating: 3/4 --
The Burning Plain is a dark drama, but one that offers hope - if you're willing to wait for the story to untangle its way to its natural end.

Washington Times
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Possibly the stories fit too neatly. If so, it's hardly a fatal flaw.
Denver Post
Rating: 3/5 --
Deep-seated emotional problems are examined in a complex movie that, as ever with Arriaga, refuses to fit into a straightforward narrative.

What Culture
If Arriaga had allowed us to spend more time with the key characters in this extended tragedy, or had spent some time punching up the plot, The Burning Plain might have had a chance.

Rating: B- --
It's serious stuff, intended for serious movie people. The only problem is, serious movie people have already been there, done that.

The result is confusion, not catharsis.

Product Description:
Guillermo Arriaga, the scribe behind Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's BABEL and 21 GRAMS, directs this drama that follows the fortunes of many different characters. THE BURNING PLAIN moves between the stories of two girls trying to help their troubled parents, a Portland woman (Charlize Theron) seeking redemption, and a couple struggling with the aftermath of infidelity.
