Faithful adaptation but missing some sizzle

Rating: 7/10 (16 February 2015)

While I will say that making the fifty shades of grey film would be rather difficult task because of the sex scenes and the dialogue in addition to the mixed message the film sends about female empowerment and abuse. Anyway the story of the film has English literature student Ana Steele who ends up with the chance of a lifetime interview when she gets the chance to talk to Christian grey a billionaire of grey enterprises when her roommate Kate is sick. It becomes a love at first sight for the duo who become smitten with each other. I will say that one of the strongest aspects of the film was the casting of dakota Johnson who plays off Ana as someone who is charming, funny, and likable. However I felt the weak link was jamie dorman who looks like he is having a difficult time easying into the role. While the sex scenes were not as graphic as the box, but I will say the film does a decent job at putting together a decent adaptation.
