Fifty Shades Darker

OK. So why does it seem many haters are men? That is not the target audience. I liked the eye candy ie Dakota Johnson, Jamie Dornan. For me, one of the funniest scenes is the exchange between Ana and Hanna after Ana gets Jack's old job. Right out of Working Girl! Did anybody else pick up on that? I read only about the Fifty Shades phenomena-not read the books. Watching this film caused me to watch the first and third movies. This isn't any great film. Most films aren't expected to be cinematic classics. The best thing I liked about this movie was the soundtrack.

Neither as good or as bad as so many commentators seem to think. It has high production values. The direction is unobtrusive. I haven't read the novels, so cannot really comment on the source material. Dakota Johnson hit the corruptible ingenue character pretty well, and looks smashing while doing so. Jamie Dornan, though... In my comments on the first movie, I compared his depth of emotion to a terminator. In this one, he at least attempts some emotional scenes. He doesn't do them very well, but he tries. Supporting cast, especially Marcia Gay Harden, were pretty good, with the exception of Kim Basinger. There is really no reason to see this, except as a continuation of the first movie. It could never stand alone.

This movie is so awful, that it is hard to find words to describe it. I really can't imagine why there are so many people that are willing to go and see in in the cinemas. This movie is not bad, because of the idea for an affair between a rich businessman and a normal girl. It is bad because the dialogues are flat, the characters are terrible and without any depth, there is no actual acting in it, and for the final the story is badly written.

It is really sad, that such a badly made movies are so popular. They destroy the idea for good movie with acting, script and everything else. And if you expect to see at least a lot of erotic in it, you may fell a bit disappointed at the end. The movie is far from that it promises to its viewers.

The predictable plotting and the boring dialogues makes this sequel automatically uninteresting. "Fifty Shades Darker" is worst than the first movie because the characters have learned nothing and repeat the exact same unhealthy relationship. The two beautiful protagonists do their bests to treating sex like a pleasurable activity but is not enough and the result is not good. The thriller narrative, involving persons from Grey's strange past, exposes the shallowness of the story. What made the first unit of this trilogy so much better than the current version is that everything was then new. But now that we are familiar with the equipment in Christian's lavish penthouse, the novelty is gone and the boredom is here.

I sat through the last half of 50 shades darker today because my sister was using my Macbook to watch it... Let me sum it up for you:

Him: "I'm not good with people because I'm mysterious."

Her: "I like mysterious, but I'm scared cause I'm fragile."

Him: "Don't be afraid, I'm the one who is afraid... of hurting you."

*Have Some Sex*

Her: "You're so thoughtful, maybe I misjudged you. Now I want to be hurt... just not emotionally."

Him: "I always hurt people, but I would never hurt you... unless you wanted me to."

Her: "Ouch, you hurt me. Now my feelings are hurt and I'm sad and my whole life hurts."

Him: "I'm sorry if I hurt you. I'll try harder, but I don't think I'll ever change.'

Her: "I'm gonna pretend like I didn't hear that, but please don't hurt me again. I trust you to change for me- projects are fun."

Him: "Put these things in your ass."

Her: "No." Him: "Okay, I'm not good with people because I'm mysterious."
