Kelly Marcel (screenplay), E.L. James (novel)Storyline
When Anastasia Steele, a literature student, goes to interview the
wealthy Christian Grey as a favor to her roommate Kate Kavanagh, she
encounters a beautiful, brilliant and intimidating man. The innocent and
naive Ana starts to realize she wants him. Despite his enigmatic
reserve and advice, she finds herself desperate to get close to him. Not
able to resist Ana's beauty and independent spirit, Christian Grey
admits he wants her too, but on his own terms. Ana hesitates as she
discovers the singular tastes of Christian Grey - despite the
embellishments of success, his multinational businesses, his vast
wealth, and his loving family, Grey is consumed by the need to control
everything. Written by

This used to be call porn.
Sorry but I can't get
over Jamie Doran.. I mean he comes from playing a serial killer in the
Fall (who tied up women and murdered them) to .. Well. 20 mins of sex.
The movie is boring and predictable. The fine line between abuse and
pleasure is so thin it's almost non- existent. Lacks any of the raunch
or controversy promised, and is instead tiresome, banal and as thinly
plotted as a porn. I haven't read the book.. and I have to say I didn't
finish the movie. I don't think i missed much by leaving 20 mins early,
but it was just boring. If a man had written the book he would probably
have been jailed. Its beyond understanding what people see in the
book/movie. Unless all the women I know are telling me lies and secretly
want to be tied up and abused by a perverted man.
