Not bad actually, considering how bad the novel is.

Rating: 8/10 (14 February 2015)

The novel is literally the first erotica I've ever read and I didn't even like it though it is fun and interesting in some way. The movie version is dull except all sex/BDSM scenes, however, I don't think it's that bad, considering it's based on, to many reviewers, such a crap book. Kudos to the director, screen play writer, and especially Dakota Johnson who actually delivered a solid performance.
Jamie Dornan's rendition of the protagonist Christian Grey, on the other hand, is simultaneously good and awful. He's simply a wooden doll when it comes to acting but this weakness also enables him to successfully bring Christian Grey to life.
