50 Shades Of S**t

Finally saw the 'hotly anticipated' 50 shades film... And I most say, what an absolute disspoinment. Other than the hotness of Christian Grey, it was merely just a bad combination of the cringiest script ever, pathetically ridiculous storyline, and rather awkward acting.
Jamie Dornan, whom I've heard has been in pretty decent BBC drama shows and seems like a rather cool guy on The Graham Norton Show; not only did he not really suit the character properly, his American accent was also quite implausible. 
Even though I hadn't read the books, I was fully aware of what to predict. To be fair, I thought the film was almost slightly borderline PG in comparison to what I've heard about the details the book goes in to...
Personally, it is rather surprising this book managed to become a bestseller because it certainly can't be for it's creative plot or witty lines. However, from a female perspective, there were parts to the film, which I thought were (what I can only describe as) quite cute. For example: him buying her nice presents and flowers, paying her compliments, and cringey compliments and their slightly romantic chemistry, but that's about the extent of it. 
This is definitely one of those films were you only watch it to say you've seen it, purely for the talking point...but at least the soundtrack's quite good!
