Tastefully done, but does border on being X-rated

Rating: 7/10 (10 May 2015)

Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) is a virgin and she is wholly attracted to Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) who is also a billionaire. Christian likes her but wants her on his own terms. Here we go.
So here we are. Finally. Yes, it borders on being X-rated. There are numerous sex scenes and nudity abounds throughout. Christian admits to Ana that he is attracted to her and he is what is called a Dominant and he wants her to be the Submissiveand he wants her to agree to and sign a contract to this effect. He shows her his "Play Room" that contains all the items a Sadist or in this case a Dominant uses to subdue his Submissive. She is shocked, but is still attracted and goes along.
It all starts at an elevator after Anna interviews Christian Grey for a school paper. As the doors close – she being inside - she says " Mr. Grey" and he says" Miss Steele." And here we go. Game on.
The sex scenes are tastefully done and one of the reasons they are not too erotic is because there is no eye contact between them. Without eye contact the sexual heat doesn't build. Anyway, that's my take. Also, since there is a lot of nudity after a while it's like it's no big deal. Make sense?
As we go along, we see there is a lot of humor in here as well, mostly by comments Ana makes. For example: at the hardware store she says "you are intimidating." He replies, "I am used to getting my own way." And she ends up saying something like: that must be very boring. Christian claims he doesn't do romance and that "my tastes are singular" and then as we go along we see him changing, becoming romantic, but still abiding by his rules that do change from time to time. Ana, of course, is looking for romance and hopes it happens. She wants him to change. She has fallen in love with him.
The sex scenes aside – hey, for a moment - this is a nice love story and the dialogues bear this out from time to time. Everything is gentle and respectful. The chemistry between them is very good and tentative for the circumstances.
The music throughout is excellent. We do not see the rest of the cast too often as this is a 2-person show. Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson are on their way to becoming major stars.
We know there will be sequels because - we haven't seen all fifty shades of Grey (he is complicated) - and the movie ends with Ana being VERY upset with Christian. As she leaves they meet – again - at an elevator. As the doors close - she being inside - she says "Christian" and he says, "Ana." Here we go (7/10)
