A Mixture of "Okay" and "Not Okay"

Rating: 6/10 (16 February 2015)

I was very excited when I first saw the trailer until I tried to read the books. So when I read the books and I expect that it would be more racy in the movie. But when I saw the movie, it turns out that it is kind of "there".
Curiosity really played me well when I first read the book until I read it several times. E.L. James did put the thought on the books that would delight the readers. It's pretty erotic but the thought of the story comes to one thing - love.
Then when the trailers and TV Spots showed up, I just knew that it would be the mixture of the book and the director's vision. Until I watched the movie for the first time, it was just as I predicted. Sam Taylor-Johnson did bravely direct this film with trust. The actors, particularly Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan, delivered their best to portray the main characters of the book, and it was not easy and funny to shoot those racy sex scenes all the time.
Okay for me - the actors, the directing, the location (I really like the Red Room of Pain though), the glider, and 50% of the story.
Not okay for me - the soundtrack (I expect a lot of the soundtrack entirely based from the book), the other 50% of the story, the script (I think it needs some push related from the book), and costume.
My only opinion is that I do respect the author's intention to put the book into a movie, but I also do respect the director's vision to execute not just based from the book but also its artistry. So it is better to have an open mind and not be too judgmental about the movie.
