Many films fail because they stretch a 5 minute plot into a 2 hour film. This one stretches a non-existent one into a 2 hour film.

It's possible to define the incongruousness, incompetence, absurdity, pedantry of this script in just one two-word line, which isOne hundred and fifty shades as a lightweight and flat-footed alternative of melodramatic entertainment. It's possible to define the incongruousness, incompetence, absurdity, pedantry of this script in just one two-word line, which is paraphrased by the great actress Dakota Johnson through, sadly, the role giving her worldwide reputation. That affirmation takes place in the initial scenes of the film, where they want to celebrate a major event, and she said it with such insolence that is offensive: "Is it yours?" What? How is it possible that after a year and a half sleeping together in the same bed, an enviable salary and an almost-a-trillion-dollar grossing she doesn't know that she must stop talking nonsense, he's your husband now, you know he has tons of money, don't you?, with just one sentence, this film provoked an absolute suppression of a serious and rigid review, therefore, I simply sat down on that dark seat to capture blunders and blunders from the beginning of the action to the arrive of the closing credits, I survived miraculously. Normally, in my reviews I talk about performances in a positive way, i.e., if such a component isn't a strong point in the film I opt to omit it, however, most of the time I evaluated them since they are a fundamental part in the harmonious ensemble that made up a feature film. With surmised anticipation, "Freed" has broken the rule. I'm ready to write, with the utmost respect and humility, about Jamie Dornan, Eric Johnson and the remaining cast, except Dakota, who performed lousy characters, at least, that keeps it coherent. Likewise, the leading male character never loses that look of concern or that frown when some fatuous vicissitudes arise in the script, we never knew about which "fifty" shadows they've been spoken for more than three hours, he simply seems to be an eye-candy and something else. Dakota Johnson is the only one who impregnates a bit of love on her character, half-heartedly. All right, she's tender, naïve and unnecessarily submissive, but Johnson knows how to turn the card around and get the spectator to try to accept her motivations, an event that never happens. It's cumbersome and delicate to talk about this feature owing to its nature but it's a matter to discuss: the sexual scenes. It's not a secret that for many people the main motive inciting them (mostly young people) to attend a theatre is the curiosity to watch them surrounded by a considerable number of people, a couple having peculiar erotic relations, intimate acts portrayed on the screen smoother than the explicit and bawdy descriptions by the author in the books. Inside a tub, at Mia's, in red rooms, black rooms, cars or beds, any cliché and "coveted" place will have the shameful DNA of "Freed". Artistically, they aren't a feat of art, shots that focus on Anastasia's panting mouth or Christian's muscular back, arrhythmic sequences in which you can feel the lack of feeling between these actors, and even so Dornan claims that he made sure to make his co-star laugh in this kind of scene, I think it was in the final cut. Nor does it have much to brag about in visual terms. From Seattle cold landscapes to luxurious closed spaces, the movie is, almost entirely, locked in the city and in burdensome rooms, only a couple of scenes were filmed in a forest. Metallic colors predominate and a beautiful white is only glimpsed at the beginning, a necessary contrast of repetitive dark nuances. In a nutshell, visually, you expect on the screen, again and again, Johnson's breasts and the same black shoes that Christian wears in two different scenes.

Easily the best part of all this suffering: a fantastic musical accompaniment. And we don't talk about the work done by Danny Elfman, usual composer of the franchise, we refer (again) to catchy hits from artists such as Julia Michaels or Rita Ora and Liam Payne, who take part of a score that will be the next playlist for millennials for a while, electronic danceable sounds provide a kind of uninhibited tone to the scenes, the sad thing here is that even these songs are inserted in a wrong way. Christian closing the door of his red room in the face of his audience is a cynical sign of the little importance that the demanding public meant to this franchise. "Fifty Shades Freed" by James Foley finally says goodbye to the goose that lays golden eggs, bye bye melodramatic loves and dopey plot decisions, gone are those dark times, the light has come not only for the protagonist, also for the public. The short summary created by the flick in the third act, shows the abysmal decay that the movie suffered, simply to conclude with an ending as stereotyped as the film itself. The movie franchise was a very tough nut to crack, but Universal Pictures has broken hearts this Valentine's Day, because its great love, that lover which gave it exorbitant amounts of money, is gone forever, so they say.… Expand

Much to my horror and disgust I was dragged to see the final chapter of the popular franchise Fifty Shades of Grey. You know the one. The rich dude and yer one spend three movies living up the rich life etc etc. At long last we can sayMuch to my horror and disgust I was dragged to see the final chapter of the popular franchise Fifty Shades of Grey. You know the one. The rich dude and yer one spend three movies living up the rich life etc etc. At long last we can say farewell to the Fifty Shades of Grey saga.

It's the final chapter, they get married and live happily ever after. Only they get married and then Anastasia discovers Christian doesn't want kids right now, but maybe "some day" and also to her surprise she discovers he has a private jet, you know, the kind of stuff any person would be perfectly happy to find out AFTER they get married. If there was a point to this movie I wish someone would tell me because as far as I could see there was no need for this to even exist. A good portion of the film is Christian Grey getting insanely paranoid because his wife doesn't use his last name the second after they get married but it's okay (because he's rich) because he just cares so much. He controls every single aspect of her life but it's okay (because he's rich) because he loves her so much. And he doesn't want her to go out with her friends after work but it's okay (because he's rich) because he doesn't want any harm to come to poor useless, helpless Anastasia. You know all the typical traits of a (psychopath) loving husband. They're starting their new life together, buying a house, getting stalked, going on extravagant holidays, nearly getting kidnapped. You know the usual stuff. As if the story wasn't bad enough each and every line is delivered in a way I was beginning to think this was meant to be a comedy. Hysterically terrible. At one point Christian Grey decides to serenade everyone with a rendition of Maybe I'm Amazed on the piano. But he doesn't just play it, no he sings along too, much to everyone's shock and horror because hard as nails Christian has never sang in front of anyone before and look at this shocking revelation oh my goodness he really must be in love with whats her face cause why else would he break into song and quick someone get me a bucket before I'm violently ill. This is a scene so random and ridiculous the whole cinema found it hilarious. Let me be clear, at no point were we laughing with this film. We were laughing at it.


When I say I loathed this pathetic excuse for a film you know I mean it. If I remember correctly the first one never set the bar very high but this is so much worse. I honestly don't know what the point of Fifty Shades Freed was, they get married and dramatic soap opera stuff happens occasionally, then they go into the play room, then even more dramatic stuff happens. Cringey beyond all reason, enough to drive one mad. There was never a shred of chemistry between Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson so watching the two of them on screen is just painful. Torture, I wanted it to end, unfortunately it has made it's money back and then some but hopefully this is the last we'll hear of Fifty Shades of Grey, a piece of fanfiction that never should have made it into book stores let alone on the big screen. Not recommended.… Expand

Fifty Shades is, was, and will never ever be considered a love story. It's basically a Mary Sue and Gary Stu living an idealistic perfect life and getting involved in a masqueraded connection that is so unrealistic and unrelatable, as well as conforming to stereotypical gender norms. Those gifts are so darn expensive that majority of the people on this Earth can't afford it. Even more disappointing is that the sex positions is highly biased. smh

The negative feedback of this trilogy is absolutely justified because it's boring and apathetic as heck. EL James is a sick and twisted witch. I would never spend my money on her poorly written books.… Expand
