50 Shades of.........

Rating: 6/10 (18 February 2015)

As a guy when asked if I wanted to see the new 50 Shades of Grey film (or told that I was going) I was nothing short of sceptical. I am very comfortably straight bloke and like to think I have a good sex life so, really I was just going in the hope that I got lucky that night. I was sceptical however. The thought of, and I'm not aiming to stereotype here but .... all of the middle-age women trying desperately to get their kicks from Mr Jamie Dornan whipping a virgin until she cries, to be honest...... you can see my concerns! Regardless of this I took the time out of my Saturday to witness it for myself.
The verdict? Surprising, actually, And not all bad. Apart from some very cringe worthy spanking over the knee and smelling of not so fresh knickers; there was actually a pretty solid story. Now I know that it is technically already a story, being born as a book and all, but from my very brief encounter with the books I can safely say they are garbage. Hence why I feel so strongly that Sam Taylor Johnson has done such a good job at creating this movie, well along with Dakota Johnson's smoking hot body which makes the whole experience a little more bearable. All in all as a guy I didn't once feel emasculated or out of place just a little jealous of his Audi R8 and stunning Seattle apartment. I must say though as a billionaire, he has nothing on Bruce Wayne! I can guarantee you once think when you come out of that theatre you will wish you were a slightly darker shade of grey........
