what i expected

Rating: 7/10 (15 February 2015)

I read all 3 books and liked them. The movie was more or less what i expected. We should all keep in mind that hard core sex scenes could not be put in a Hollywood movie that wants to make money, so in a two hour film there should be unfolded 3 things: the (complicated) personalities, the love story and some BDSM sex that doesn't offend the big crowd but doesn't disappoint the fans of the book either. This said, all 3 things could be done better. During the movie I had the feeling that everything was happening too fast in order to fit in a little bit of everything. Like there was no time for explanations! It was important to be clear in the movie that the main connection between the couple came from the fact that Ana was a virgin and because of that Cristian became obsessive over her. "You are mine" is what made it difficult for him to let go of her and yet it was completely gone from the movie. For someone who haven't read the book, it made no sense why Cristian look devastated when he lost her. Overall, it could have lasted half or even an hour longer and explain better some important details or give time and film better some sex scenes! I liked the 2 main actors, but the rest of the cast was not good.
