Fifty Shades Darker

Well, they did warn me to strap up when watching this movie (if you know what I mean). If you’ve seen “fifty shades of grey” or at least heard of it, then you must agree that this is a movie for two. So, I know some of you may not believe this, but I skipped all the sex scenes in the movie, though not for righteous reasons and I will not bore you with the “whys”. I am going to try to keep this simple because I know how fun reading can be for this generation.

Let’s talk about Anastasia Steele, played by Dakota Johnson. What do you guys think of her “ya, He is freaky crazy and kind of not the right guy for me, but I think I will marry him all the same” attitude. I found it pathetic. I mean, how does one reconcile not being sure of whether to continue with a relationship and the decision to marry the same person in what I presume was less than two weeks. She tried so hard to make it look as if the fact that she had a billionaire for a boyfriend was no big deal and the effort was almost flawless if not for the fact that it was, in fact, a big deal. Am I saying that Anastasia is one big fat gold digger? Of course not!

Let’s talk about my man Christian Grey, played by Jamie Dornan. It is a fact that getting a lady Apple gadgets is basic romance in this tech age. I call it “forgive me 101”, learn it! Besides his intimidatingly seductive physique, his profound reputation, and the fact that he is his own boss, his weirdness is only matched by the weight of his bank account and, of course, his love of Anastasia Steele. I loved the part where he knelt down accepting dominance from Anna. For some reason, it reminded of the “wolf man” show on NatGeo Wild. What do you call a man whose idea of sex is whipping ladies resembling his dead mom? Correct me if I’m wrong, but I am guessing Sick! In his defense, they actually consent to it, – how crazy is that (I think this deserves its own paragraph).
Though not by experience, I know sometimes sex can get a little bit out of hand (I would probably hit the brakes before then) and what would normally make you punch your partner in the throat for some reason is overwhelmingly pleasing, but I think whipping your partner should, no matter what you are into, leave you with a minimum of two black eyes.

Is it just me or does Kate smile just a little bit above average and what’s with the jack Hyde guy, played by Eric Johnson. I know it’s actually a notorious subject in the 21st century’s social sphere – males obsessing over females and right next to it is terrorism. Okay, statistically, that’s bullshit, but I really think it lays the foundations for rape, murder, suicides and you know, bad things, generally. Taylor Swift and Zayne did okay with the theme song (Taylor Swift slew Zayne though) but I think the one for “fifty shades of grey” is better. I am going to reserve my comments on Elena Lincoln, played by Kim Basinger, for “fifty shades free”, call it delayed gratification (kids don’t look that up). See ya!!
