For a Niche Audience

Rating: Null/10 (6 June 2015)

Those who prefer boring & mainstream sex/love-making or what's seen in most online porn, most likely will not like this film.
If you're a puritan, or puritan-like, then this movie isn't for you.
The music in the film is appropriate but some of the songs i didn't like.
This film is for a certain niche audience yet it tries too hard to please all-audiences. Hollywood usually targets male teens but this film is best for people who liked the book and/or those who like BDSM.
In terms of romance, this movie or director/producer seems to want to copy the Twilight saga. Produce sequels, & the way they show the main two characters. If you liked the Twilight saga's romance then you'll probably like this movie.
I knew a lot about BDSM before watching this movie.
There's only so much they can show w/o being rated NC-17, be approved by creepy Hollywood, and to be able to reach the mainstream theater. Bdsm is not really porn like many people think. Porn is usually hardcore, quick, fake, and containing explicit content. This film is about a long-romantic story unlike porn.
What i don't like is, it gives a false impression that one must be rich to be able to do BDSM. The two main characters don't have to be of the same skin & hair color (like Twilight & many other Hollywood films.) The female actor who played the female main character looks like she's 14. They make her look very-very-skinny when skinny women generally don't like sex, especially bdsm type sex. Gives the false impression that you must be young & very skinny to be an attractive woman. It gives a bad message that men, especially successful men, should fornicate w/ young & skinny women. She has peach fuzz on her legs! And Mr. Grey is shown w/ bushy-pubic hair?! Bdsm people shave their bush & pubes. And he's shown having weird red things on his chest, Ana asks about em but never gets an answer. Are we gonna find out in the next film? Perhaps a previous woman gave him herpes? And the end message could be that fornication is bad because you can get herpes? It looks like a STD to me. The director is British & it's filmed in Vancouver, Canada (British also). Perhaps that's why us Americans don't like it that much?
The ending seemed like a typical Hollywood ending, no happy ending. Ruins the fun & positiveness of what was going on.
