Fifty Shades of Grey

My blog has been 'lying dormant' for a year+ now & I decided to bring it back to life again. & my 1st entry after like more than 12 months has to be none other than a sexy & HOT subject. :P

 Jamie Dornan simply fit the character of the Adonis, beautiful, charming, control freak & tormented billionaire, Christian Grey. <3 b="">

 Sizzling chemistry between the 2 leads, Jamie Dornan & Dakota Johnson

 The 'signature' biting lip from Anastasia Steele which totally turns Christian Grey on. :P

Well, frankly speaking, I never thought that I would be interested in this Erotic romance trilogy written by E.L James. :D Initially when "Fifty Shades of Grey" was released on Valentine's Day 2015, there was a lot of Hooha, controversy & media frenzy surrounded it, in particular of the raunchy sex scenes & the topic of BDSM. Celebrities like Madonna dismissed it as being too tame of her expectations of the BDSM scenes in the movie. A friend of mine said throughout the whole movie, she only remembered the lead female character, Anastasia Steele (played by Dakota Johnson) constantly biting her lips. Negative reviews like these had quite an influence on me & I had the impression of the movie as well as the Erotic novel being distasteful & boring, nothing but a "Mummy Porn" as it was described. 

2 years later, I finally decided to watch it & the 2nd part of the trilogy "Fifty Shades Darker". Why, you may ask? Call it curiosity. ;) I wanted to know what all the hooha was about. I must say that I actually enjoyed the 2 movies & its not that bad at all as what some people described it to me. Its not as if its distasteful & senseless porn, it had a storyline to it. A love story. Both movies were well-directed with perfect cast, especially the 2 leads. Jamie Dornan - with smoky smouldering and intense grey eyes and copper tousled hair totally fits the bill as Christian Grey. Dakota Johnson is radiant as the protagonist Anastasia Steele, with her blue eyes, pale skin and thin and slender shape.  Oh my, I love her long legs! She is so leggy at 1.71m. I think because of her tall height, it actually didn’t quite show Jamie Dornan’s equally tall height at 1.83m. I am thinking Anastasia Steele should be around 1.65-1.68m. Coz the emphysis on 50 Shades Mr Grey gazing down at her a lot in the novel. 

 The sex scenes were tastefully filmed unlike in the korean movies where the sex scenes were like watching HORROR movie. :O No foreplay, immediate thrusting or should I say just zoom in to fucking…oh God. Fucking Hard. Distastefully, if you ask me. I wouldn’t find sex appealing after watching that. 

After watching the 2 movies, it sparked my interest to read the book actually as I wanted to know the story indepth, coz normally the film would cut out many scenes in order to fit in the 2 hour viewing time & also for dramatic effect :) Oh my, the book is much more graphic & raw especially in the BDSM part which is crucial, which unfortunately, the movie fails to deliver. :( I now understand why critics mentioned that not enough sex scenes in the movie. The 1^st book of the trilogy is actually the most important. In my opinion, if you wanna film an erotic movie like this right, just go all the way without reservations. ☹ 

The 2nd movie "Fifty Shades Darker", made substantial improvements & this I must say, is much better crowd pleaser than the 1st one. ;) More interesting sex scenes & seemed to dare to explore further as compared to the 1st one. I wonder is it because of the the numerous feedbacks from the novel fans or is it because of the change of director & screenplay or both? But I'm really glad that the author, E.L James was called in to be the producer which is vital as this to her, portray as much truth & accuracy to the book as possible. :)

I can't wait for the final of the trilogy "Fifty Shades Freed" to be released next year Valentine's Day. I'm so gonna watch it! Laters, baby! ;)
