[ movie review ] 50 shades of grey

Pretty sure most of you out there have read a lot of this film reviews. I myself also read many of the reviews from the media as well as bloggers I follow.  Still, here is my version.

To cut the crap short, I am disappointed with Fifty Shades of Grey the movie. While I am not a big fans of the book itself, though I had read them all, I still think the book version is better than the movie. It is always like that,isn’t it?!

The whole film is about negotiation or compromises whether Ms. Steele will agree to Mr. Grey’s ‘play room’ rules. Well, instead of dinner and movie (and sex later) Christian offers butt plugs, genital clamps, and other kinky stuff to Ana.  The plot is lame and so slow. The sex scene is not as dirty as advertised, again the books’ version is hotter and steamier  ( Or maybe I am expecting too much here! ).  Half  way of the movie I felt bored and sleepy! Personally, I don’t like Jamie Dornan’s acting as Christian Grey at all. He doesn’t look that cool like what I had pictured Mr. Grey is as the book portrayed him, nor sexy. Handsome yes. I think, he’s a little too sweet to play Mr. Grey. And did you know in the book it said Christian has piercing grey eyes, while Jamie has just a fine shade of blue, I know I become too picky here 🙂 But I like Dakota Johnson, I think she plays her role good enough.  She looks cute and innocence when she’s interviewing Christian Grey.  She just looks like the girl next door, the girl that you often see in the day-to-day life.  Her clothes, make-up, just perfect to describe her character.  Thumbs up for Miss.  Johnson!

In my opinion the film was failed to capture the excitement of the books 🙂 I exited the cinema feeling flat (and hungry), nothing, nada.  While this afternoon my girlfriends and I were so hot with excitement…hehehe… 🙂 So, if you haven’t seen it yet, don’t rush to the cinema. Just wait for its dvd. Because 50 shades of grey is more like 50 shades of boring.

By the way, with the cliffhanger ending I am wondering if there will be another sequel of Fifty Shades? Just curious.

Laters, baby…:)
