To go or not to go? 50 Shades of Grey

The highly successful, fairly controversial BDSM book series based on a fan fiction of another series, 50 Shades of Grey, opens this weekend but is it worth your Valentines day date? Dakota Johnson plays Anastasia Steele, a girl who meets the mysterious Christian Grey, played by Jamie Dornan, by favor of a friend. As you watch Steele go through her quest of discovering herself sexually, you can't help but feel a brooding sense a danger, that emulates a climax in it's own right. The first half hour of the film is actually quite fun, with Johnson's believable portrayal of a woman being chased around by a billionaire saying, and proposing, quite ridiculous things. As she begins to learn more about Grey and his complicated past, his proposals graduate to demands that offer little to no personal gain for Steele, leading to a lot of broken rules and negotiations. Unfortunately, the reason behind Grey's sexual favors stems from a horrific incident that happened in his teen years, that seemed like a negative cop out for a community that already carries a heavy stigma. It also doesn't help the case that people have been talking about 50 Shades negative portrayal of the BDSM community for year and its possible repercussions. The other main problem with this film is there is a lot of sex scenes but nothing that takes the film too far, especially when you draw comparison with Lars Von Trier sex epic, Nymphomaniac, that featured a BDSM far more grueling and gut wrenching than anything feature in 50 Shades of Grey. The movie, surprisingly ended on a high note, regardless of the lack luster chemistry between the films stars. Well, whether we like it or not, 50 Shades of Grey is here to stay. `
