A look at the phenomenal success of novel, Fifty Shades of Grey.
Leave your thoughts about Sex Story: Fifty Shades of Grey.
| Vanity FairRichard LawsonFifty Shades of Grey is not the lame, hot-and-bothered fantasy romance many, including myself, thought it would be. It's got wit and humor and a modest intelligence about human behavior that, say, the Twilight movies never had. |
| Star-Democrat (Easton, MD)Greg MakiTo put it plainly, there's nothing redeeming here - not the acting, writing, directing or even the, um, "action" scenes, during which you just feel bad for the characters, actors and everyone on the set who had to be a part of them. |
| BET.comClay CaneThe movie is simply a profitable pop culture movement with the only good thing coming out of it is Beyoncé's remix of 'Crazy in Love.' |
| San Antonio Current Kiko MartinezThe second half of the film devolves into something that resembles tedious, melodramatic daytime TV. |
| CompuserveHarvey S. KartenIf this were a parody of romance, the film might be considered valid; but somehow the cast and crew appear to treat the venture as realistic. |
| London Evening StandardDavid Sexton[Taylor-Johnson] has very professionally rendered this potent rubbish much less ridiculous, much more of a marketable proposition, than could have been expected. |
| Las Vegas Review-JournalChristopher LawrenceFifty Shades isn't ha-ha cheesy fun. It isn't tee-hee quasi-dirty fun. It's terrible. On almost every level. |
| Linoleum KnifeAlonso DuraldeLess interested in sexual power dynamics than in lassoing this guy into what the movie perceives as "normalcy." |
| FromTheBalconyBill ClarkFifty Shades of Grey may be the first film in history made specifically for the purposes of hate-watching. |
| CinemixtapeJ. OlsonFunny (often intentionally!), ferociously unsexy, and roundly entertaining from beginning to end. |
