Definitely underrated!

Rating: 7/10 (10 January 2016)

One can say that it is a sort of Cinderella story, where a simple girl is suddenly overwhelmed by this stunning handsome gentle millionaire who takes an interest to her, she becomes fascinated, maybe even infatuated. However, it is no classic Cinderella, as she goes on to realize that he is in fact, no prince charming. Because of her immaturity and inexperience, at first she does not take his "problems" seriously to only when she's matured realize that.
I read just beyond half of the book and could not finish it. That kind of writing wasn't for me. But as a giant fan of cinema I must say this movie wasn't half so bad. The picture is amazing, the soundtrack is beautiful and the mystery portrayed by Christian Grey is very convincing. I felt that Dakota Johnson did a pretty decent job as Anastasia and was also very convincing in naivety and inexperience. I definitely look forward the sequel as I could not put myself through books 2 and 3. I do think they could have shown Christian as a more problematic overachiever, like in the book, and maybe show more of his past, but then again, the film is more concentrated in his obsession with "getting the girl", and getting her to agree to his crazy proposal.
But I definitely enjoyed he film!
