Review of Fifty Shades Darker (2017) by Aiden T — 06 Dec 2018

Cheesy and completely unrealistic? yep. Ridiculous and sexist? You bet. Totally fun? Absolutely. The musical choices are hip, light, and sexy; and, the sweeping views of the luxurious life are just nice to look at.

Female fantasy movies are fun to imagine are happening to you. Or fun to giggle at with friends. Who wouldn't enjoy a model hot 27 year old millionaire boyfriend who buys you electronics, ball gowns, sports cars and diamonds? Who takes you sailing and flying and fine dining, all while telling you everything you want to hear.

Who defends you in a paternal and possessive and flattering way. Of course that doesn't exist, and the insane reasoning for why he became dominant is all wrong. But still... it's fun. You never get tired of looking at Anastasia.

Just gorgeous and vulnerable with a light girlish whispery voice. This was the most fun of the three movies and the sex scenes aren't too embarrassing, surprisingly soft core. I think some women are intrigued by the concept of bdsm but not ready to see a movie about it.

If you ARE ready, watch "Secretary" with Maggie Gyllenhall. For sillier lighter playful fluff, this one was good.
