Mr. Grey will bore you now......

Rating: 3/10 (11 March 2015)

Anastasia Steele, is an English Literature major on the verge of graduation when her best friend, a journalism major, gets sick and asks her to do an assignment for her, to interview Christian Grey, the wealthy businessman who is speaking at their impending graduation ceremony.
The two hit it off right away; the awkward young woman is immediately turned on by his power and control, and he's drawn to her naiveté.......
So here we are, thank you Hollywood, for really scraping the barrel on making that precious dollar.
I don't blame the director at all for the atrocity I've just seen. The blame is entirely on 'novelist' E.L. James. If they were not so big headed, let Patrick Marber's rewrite be predominant,then this could have been something else.
Instead, we get an inane script, one of the worst of the year, spouted out by what appears to be a confused cast, and Dornan, no matter how beautiful he is, just seems like an automaton throughout the entire movie.
Yes, the man is troubled, he's insecure, and gets his kicks from his 'dirty rotter' antics. But it doesn't hold, and scenes that are supposed to be titillating, become laughable, almost on the verge of a Zucker type movie.
When you look at it, the audience have got it all wrong, it's not soft core cheeky cheeky viewing, its consumerist pornography, focusing more on the money,the lifestyle, rather than the selling point.
It's this generations Disclosure, this generations Indecent Proposal, even Basic instinct, and I guarantee, if this was made 25 years ago, one Michael Douglas would have taken the lead role.
It's nothing new, the chemistry is beyond poor, and I was left scratching my head.....
This has really made that much money, and in turn, its bore one of the most unnecessary franchises ever produced in movie history.
It's awful, but it looks good, I'll give it that.
