Fifty Shades Of Grey 2- a review by Christine Riccio

Full text transcript of Fifty Shades Darker review:

I’m Christine. And yesterday I saw 50 Shades of Grey. That’s right. I saw the movie, just like I said that I was going to see it. So no surprise There. Oh, that’s better. It was all too colorful before. So 50 Shades of Grey, the film so controversial a preamble is right now with I have never read the 50 Shades of Grey trilogy. I don’t plan on reading it. I do plan on seeing the films. I’ve wanted to see this film since it came out. I can’t help it. I was curious the amount of People on my Instagram who like to Support this movie. It’s basically supporting rape.

Let me just start this off with supporting. This movie is not supporting rape. There is a huge, ginormous difference. And honestly, it’s insulting that you would say something like that to me or to anyone. I don’t know about the books, but I’m not talking about the books at all. This is just my thoughts and feelings strictly on the film. I’m going to say that again strictly on the film. If you don’t want to hear strictly on the film, then you should leave. OK, so as I’m sure you’re aware and if you’re not aware, I’m surprised you’re not aware yet. Fifty Shades of Grey was a

Twilight fan fiction. I haven’t read the books. I wasn’t aware of how Twilight it actually was Under Those trailer reactions. And I was jokingly comparing everything to Twilight because just in the trailer I could just pick out little things that were so similar. I see the movie. I literally the first 40 minutes. I can’t stop cackling. I’m hysterical sitting. You might see. I cannot Believe that this got me

This bestselling novel. It’s going to be a very successful film. Probably franchise is just Twilight again, literally would be the characters are all the Twilight characters. I couldn’t stop laughing as they popped up, like propping up the Dodgers the next day. And I was like slapping her and laughing couldn’t. As weird as it is, this is just twilight, Like revamped in a different setting. No vampires and sex. I enjoyed myself. I had a lot of fun watching a movie. Granted, as it went on. It was less fun and just more interesting because I’ve heard so much about this story and what this world and I’ve never really read it for myself. I’ve never seen the story for myself. And now that I’ve seen the movie for myself, I feel I’m much more qualified to make judgment calls on people when they’re like Your supporting rape, when you support this

Film because you’re not OK, sit down. The thing is, everything physical that happens in this movie happens with consent. Anesthesia is always like, yeah, I like that. Do it. That doesn’t mean there’s no emotional abuse or mental abuse going on. But physically, she asks for everything that happens. So let’s just all calm down, OK? Maybe that happens in the book, but it does not happen in the film. I’m trying to figure out how I would rate this film because I didn’t love it, but it was entertaining. I wouldn’t recommend it to randoms, but I recommend it to anyone who’s interested in Fifty Shades of Grey. If you’re one of those haters, they just hate it and you’ve never read it and you’re just like, Oh, it

Just goes through the film. And so when you say things about hating it, you have grounds to say it. If you like toilet at all and you’re over 17, like, don’t go see this movie if you’re young, but if you’re seventeen plus definitely see if you like Twilight because you’ll get a Big kick out of it. It will Be fun. Back to the rating thing. I think I would give it a B.. Look, I need to see the next film. I’m not going to read the next book. Natasha thinks you might. And I heard saw a few people on Twitter. They’re like, damn, I might read the next book now because it kind of ends on a cliffhanger, not like a cliffhanger. It’s not a full arc. It feels like she took one big book and cut it in three parts. So we just saw like Act one, you need to see the rest. You’re so curious not to the curious thing. Great market. They did a good job marketing this film. Kudos to the marketing team. No, I’m going to get into a spoiler

Section because I need to talk about the book. So if you haven’t seen the film yet, bye bye. Bye bye. Go see it and then come back. We can talk about it. If you think you’re never going to see it, why not stay? Let’s talk about it. OK, Squillari people. We start off with our main character, Bella, who’s Anastasia in the film, Mostly Christian is like Anastasia and she’s like Anna.

It’s just Anna. Just like Isabella. No, Bella. It’s just everything was straight, the end of it. So she goes to interview. She’s wearing clothes that are very cute. And her roommate is Rosalina Nastassja. Bella is making a sandwich. And Rosalee’s like, no, I don’t want a sandwich. Don’t make you one. And then Anastasia Finishes her sandwich. Rosalee gets Up and she’s like, Actually, I Am hungry and takes a sandwich at a certain point and bites into it. And it’s kind of a seizure.

Does you have to make yourself a sandwich? She gets up. Super fucking computer is Like, oh, oh, Annotators, character’s funnier than Bella in the movies, but if you remember back book, Bella is pretty cheap and NSA just got that going And it’s fun. It makes the movie thought.

What was I talking about? Anastacia understand one thing with annotators character. She lets herself be walked over sometimes, but she does assert herself at times expecting her to be completely passive all the time. But there are moments where she’s like, no, she doesn’t sign the freaking contract the whole time and she is suddenly changing Christian the whole time. And I think that’s what this is going to be about. It feels like the story here is her changing Christian into someone that doesn’t need the BDM to be happy, that can be in a relationship. I never felt threatened by Christians, Edward. I never felt like he was going to hurt her without her consent. I never felt like he would go too far. That was really important to making this film one that people enjoyed. It’s so funny because Ron Tomato’s had this at 60 percent before it actually came out To the public. And then as soon as the public could see it, he went down to 33 percent. Usually goes the other way. Critics make it low and then the audience makes it higher. He’s going to hate, hate, hate, hate, hate. And I definitely did not hate this movie.

It was so funny in a twilight way. I was talking about that first interview. She, like, walks through the door in her frumpy Bella outfit and just like, careful, because you guys all move for no freaking reason except Bella troops over flat surfaces. So I need to talk for that. I’m like that whole first scene was just so awkward and uncomfortable and funny. The lip biting. I don’t know if you remember. Oh, I remember early Kristen Stewart or just reading the Twilight books, but the lip biting is a huge thing. I loved every time they would do a zoom close. Such an extreme glotzer on the lips If you pay attention, she bites her lip every ten seconds. There is no three minutes that goes by without her. Oh, hi, Lip. What’s up, Lip?

I look to the left lip. There’s no I don’t. I was like some people say don’t have a heart. Edward say you don’t have to See all this is like this. I mean he’s like eat heart. She always used to eat but not him. I can’t right now. Yeah. I was like the exact car stuff being seen except with the bicycle. I thought I was just being funny when I said the trailer. But no, it’s a real don’t you guys are on the bars. It’s so funny you just waiting on line. That phone call was like one of the highlights of the entire movie with Dakota. The actors played it beautifully there. You hit the nail on the head. Yeah, we have like classic Edward overreaction. And so you go home right now and it’s like the Twilight characters just keep going. Hey, I’m Jacob. I love you

Family. I don’t know. You’re talking about My boyfriend and then her job. Totally my new store. Do I like you? Just think it’s the store that she’s checking out, Kristen. This one guy jumps out at me. I’ll be back to you. It’s golden retriever boy, might we already have the room at rosily, but when they’re out of the bar, Robert and Rosalie are together. And then you have this driver who I’m pretty sure it’s fucking Jasper. How is the Hosie feeling today? What was it like with his emotions? Let me ask him in the car the way of Bela’s car and then of course, the gifts after that, Bella just can’t accept. And then he comes with the car for a graduation picture. She’s wearing a dress Velas prom dress, literally. Her mom is literally it’s the same. I like your banana. And then the whole scene, like before he opens up the playroom, was really funny. Do you have any idea what’s in here, like your Xbox and stuff?

That was the I know what you are. Say it say out loud. That was the classic beloved Vampire scene except BDM bellows computers, the whole crack about Anastasia’s computer being broken and died because, you know, the fucking million year old computer takes like ten years to boot up and then he buys her a new computer. I like you should do some research to build up some vampire research, researching videos, violent alleys. That girls’s sister literally looks like she’s playing Alice the piano, the score. It was Danny Elfman. I don’t know if he’s being funny. So many riffs and Different piano bits that just

Feel like the Twilight score. And I’m not making this up. Almost one to speak of scene shifting the part. Would you faked it in the bar? Yeah. You can’t be with me, but I can’t stay away from you. How did this happen? How did this become a separate real book? Oh, so Cringely, He found out that she was a virgin and He was like, where have you been waiting? Quite so ridiculously cheesy. You compare it to Twilight and it doesn’t feel as cheesy because they’re like innocent teenagers. But then you have like This thirty year old man, this 21 year old grown ass woman

Guys have been through you so that you could make love to me. Now, I wasn’t expecting it to end. Where did end? I think they did a good job with that. It was a great place to end because people like me who are just there to be entertained because we’re curious and that that’s it. I need to know how it was so funny. The people behind me, it was this man. And when he came into the theater, the wife was like, don’t worry. You see, you’re not the only guy here. There’s another guy over there. And he’s like, Yeah, yeah, I didn’t want to see it. And he’s like, that’s the way. It’s like, what were you just getting into the business?

Yeah, it feels really demeaning. But at the same time she’s read everything and agrees to everything that’s going on. She consents every single time they’re going to do something. And a lot of times, like I thought it to be really rough and like painful to watch, but she’s always like, yeah, more. And he’s not, like, whipping her until that scene with the belt, the scene with the belt I was a little confused about. But again, it was given with straight up consent. He asked her a million times if she wanted to do it. I didn’t understand what she was going to get out of that, like she needed to see what the worst could be. Why couldn’t you just ask him to tell her what the words would be? Ask him to say I want to with you with this bout six times that that’s enough to be like, OK, he wants to hit me like I’m some sex slave and that’s not OK. But she let him do it. She could have, after one whip been like, we’re done, stop, get off me. And he would have stopped because he always does. That’s the thing. Like we don’t feel like he’s going to keep going. I don’t care what he does in the book, in the movie, he’ll stop. She goes through all six whips because she wants to. She gave consent for all that. She’s a grown ass woman and she went along with it until she said no. And when she did say no, she stopped at the end when she unleveraged. No, she said it really loud and seriously, and he just stopped in its tracks. I don’t like all the shit that he spews, but he’s not raping her ever in this film.

How about that new moon scene? At the end when she was crying and it was writing, I was like, oh, is this the new has new moon just kicked in? Is that what’s happening? I have a lot of fun. Unexpectedly, really enjoyed myself in, like, a mocking sort of a way. But it doesn’t matter. It was a way and I want to see the next fall I look to hear what you thought, what your favorite part of it was, your most cringe worthy part of it was cringe worthy for me. Exactly that scene. I wonder. Justin, please share your thoughts. I’ll talk to you next time. Thanks for watching. Oh, boy.
