I have not read or seen Fifty Shades of Grey, however, after
reading many reviews I want to see how great or awful the film actually is.
Most of the reviewers did not like the film, or only liked certain aspects from
the film. No one actually loved it. I have talked to people who’ve read the
book and actually enjoyed it. When I heard about how much hype the novel had, I
considered I would go watch the movie when it comes out. Watching the trailer I
was a bit confused about it all, having not read the book. After reading many of
the film reviews on The Dissolve, it
seems as though the film could have been better. Many of the reviewers also
thought the novel was terrible and was expecting the film to be just as bad. While
I’ve never seen the movie or read the book, I agree with Keith that the film
seems like it has “no real act structure, no antagonist” and that “it all just
sort of happens”. Also, after reading Genevieve’s review, it seems like the
film in a way degrades women since it portrays Ana, one of the main characters
in the film, as indecisive and naïve. Having seen the trailer a couple of
times, I’d have to agree with some people that neither of the leads seem to have
chemistry for each other, I just didn’t see it in the trailer and wouldn’t
expect to see it in the full length film. Although the film didn’t get very positive
reviews, I have checked out the soundtrack and it actually is quite good. I would
still like to see the movie for myself, but instead of risking the chances that
I end up hating the movie and waste my money; I’ll wait for when it’s released
on DVD.
When it comes down to it, opinions are objective, and personal to that person. When deciding whether not to watch a movie the last thing I do is check reviews, because more likely than not there are more haters in this world than lovers, and the lovers probably don't feel the need to broadcast how they feel to gain gratification from their audiences. Saying that, I want to see this movie so bad!!!
