I saw it. It was silly the way I expected it to be, but the lead actor Jamie Dornan was nice to look at.

Finally saw the movie. It had so much potential. Talk about lack of chemistry for a movie that is completely about chemistry!

Jamie Doran is good looking, but so wrong for this role. They needed to cast someome that could command a presence. He can't. The premise of the story was ripped off from the Twilight Series. You can see flashes of it through the movie. Poorly directed, poorly edited and poorly acted.

Smile My husband bought this movie....

So we watched it Saturday night with low expectations but it wasn't that bad. I thought I would be more negative but I thought she did OK.

Maybe I've seen too many movies but this didn't make the worst list for me anyway.

Bought the book way back, put it somewhere, need to find it to read it.

As bad as I thought it was going to be...it was worse. No chemistry, poor acting by both leads, crud directing and editing. Complete disaster.

Just think, they're making yet another movie. This one with full-frontal, if they can pay someone enough to do it.

Love story? I don't think so. I wanted Anastasia to hop up off that table, take a couple of the whips and GIVE them to Mr. Grey in a way that he wouldn't forget! This just makes me MAD. ABUSE is never ok. NEVER OK. NEVER.

Me and my girlfriend watched it on Valentine's Day. Even she thought it was horrible, with the lack of chemistry and the awkwardness of the actors. Plus, she's not too keen on Dakota Johnson, or at least the characters she plays.

Did anyone find it ironic when they had the "Fifty Shades of Grey" commercials during the Ariel Castro TV series? Ariel Castro IS Christian Grey, without the money.

I thought the books were insipid garbage. A 12 year old's writing level. I read the first one and had to stop. My friend insisted I try the other...I just couldn't. I didn't care.

That being said, I was surprised not to despise the movie.
