Great film for fans of the book!

Rating: 9/10 (21 February 2015)

Great movie, better than the book. I like the fact that it wasn't as "sex" heavy as the books. I believe that the sex scenes in the book got way too repetitive and took away from the story. The movie on the other hand, told the story without getting bogged down by sex. It did leave out some important things that Christian said in the books that bring the readers to a level of understanding as to his character. The book was great at showing Christians need for sex with Ana ( which I believed in his mind was his way of showing he cared for her and needed her). That didn't come across very well in the movie. The chemistry between the two leads was great and believable. Both Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan did a fantastic job. They sold the love story between Ana and Christian and I can't think of any other actors I would have like to have seen in the role. I am looking forward to seeing it again and can't wait for the sequel.
