It isn't that bad

Rating: 6/10 (16 February 2015)

Let's be fair. I'm a bloke who took his girlfriend to see this for valentines day. Negatives? Plenty. I didn't in the slightest find Dakota Johnson attractive. Her body is similar to that of a stray cat and for goodness sake Dakota, Smile! You look like you want to cry in every scene. The film its self? Being honest the film had a lot of bore. I don't want to see them talking, and talking, and continue to talk.
However. Even though I've never read the book, the film showed me a whole new side to it that I didn't realise. This isn't a sex story which to many people think. It's a story about two people who want a relationship, but they want two different kinds of relationships. She's wanting a boyfriend to sleep next to and have date nights but he's wanting this whole dominance thing. This is a love story! not a porno.
Overall, there was a lot of pressure on two upcoming actors and you can not fault them for doing the best they possibly could. I said the film was a bore and it was, but you know what? I'll be back next year watching the sequel because the film had me talking about it after for many days. Thinking about the story and directing it in my head. So don't you worry E.L James.
It's not perfect, maybe not even good, but 50 shades is going to be in the head of every man and woman that set foot in that cinema.
