Ok, Let's Do This: The 'Fifty Shades Of Grey' Reviews
Ok, so after that bloke from Sons of Anarchy dropped out, and that bloke from The Fall jumped in, after the movie got a restricting rating and then a not-too-restriction rating and after somebody said it was really kinky but also not that kinky, Fifty Shades of Grey is finally here. The steamy tale of billionaire Christian Grey and his submissive mistress Anastasia Steele has finally made it to the screen - but, well, is it any good?
"The stylish and mostly satisfying film will be [a blockbuster], and deservedly so. Starring a vivacious Dakota Johnson and a game Jamie Dornan, Taylor-Johnson's erotic romance is a skillful distillation of James' first book," wrote Inkoo Kang of The Wrap.
Some were disappointed that we didn't get to see a little more flesh.
"We may have all been curious going in, but by the time the credits roll, there's another question that springs to mind: Is that all there is?" wrote Lindsey Bahr of the Associated Press.
"Fifty Shades Of Grey is embarrassing and depressing, especially when considering the picture as a reflection of the quality and state of mainstream modern romance today," said Rodrigo Perez of The Playlist.
Of course, Fifty Shades of Grey hits theaters on Valentine's Day. That's February 14, guys.
