Ranking March 2017's Movies From Worst To Best

4. Burning Sands

RottenTomatoes Score: 84% (7.1/10)

Box Office: Straight to Netflix.

Verdict: A devastatingly intimate look at the hazing rituals that dominate fraternity culture, Burning Sands may not offer much in terms of narrative surprise, but it is a bracingly effective, in-the-trenches docudrama with a litany of terrific performances (including Moonlight's Trevante Rhodes).

Aside from an occasional lurch into heavy-handed territory, there's a deeply felt and truly horrifying message at the film's core, one that American society desperately needs to tackle head-on sooner rather than later. Another smart pick-up for Netflix, and hopefully a sign that more socially conscious drama is on the way from the streaming giant.
