Other than a strong cast of Black actors, Burning Sands brings nothing new to this over-trodden tale of hazing brutality and frat stupidity. Missing are any drivers that would make young men want to be part of such a moronic society.
The acting is strong, the faces memorable and the brutality is palpable, but it just wasn't enough.
The film ends with the central character making a cell phone call and mumbling something into the phone that is frustratingly unintelligible. I watched a screener of this, and replayed the final seconds several times, but couldn't make it out. What an incredible oversight.

There must be something in there, otherwise why would all these people put the money to make this movie. But I could not relate to the story. I even fast forwarded and still could not see the point of the movie. So I tuned out.
Good movie..Shows what happens when your self worth is so low that you think you have to pay for others to humiliate you for a fake friendship. This is how you brainwash people and create narcissistic sheep that keep you from advancing on the job..Have your college age kids watch this.
This is a good movie. Firstly it gave me some insight, truth or false. It is not a spending spare time movie. Great acting. These young actors are talented and directed smoothly. Anyone who is on acting must see this. It is not flawless but who cares, i am not a fan of flawless stuff.
The message of movie is not clear. But in general you can get the point that society can screw any individual in different ways which is sad. Very sad.
Still i have to ask the question. If you can't repair a generation of broken man how can you make the young stronger. Is it possible?
