Review of Fifty Shades Darker (2017) by Stanley834 — 27 Jul 2017

After watching Fifty Shades Darker, I’m still not convinced of it being a love story. Sure the abusive relationship is over, but Christian still has that manipulative and possessive personality that affects Ana’s personal space. Buying Ana’s company unexpectedly and unnecessarily transferring money to her bank account, as well as knowing her account number is downright creepy as heck. After all that, he proposes her to marry him and she said yes. My primary reaction to that is “WTAF?!” She’s going to marry some dude who stalks her a lot and just uses her to fulfill his own desires.

Plus, the disappointing parts of the film is the gender-biased sex positions. No woman on top?! Not even once??!! CTFO!!! This is why I’m appalled of watching films that deal with this kind of **** After knowing more of his former submissives and childhood trauma, my opinion on Christian Grey and the book series remain the same. He is nothing but a deep-seated sadistic and goddamn conniving **** and the books deliver a misconstrued concept of romance.

I won’t be surprised if it's nominated for the Golden Raspberry Awards.
