What a stupendous expulsion of cinematic excrement!! North-Americans apparently get hot and bothered by taking tame little peeks into a genre long ago mastered by the French. There are a many such titles far more worthy of the "erotic" tag, produced in Europe decades ago (check out any of the 14 titles which can be found under the List titled "Artcore" here, for many better examples of the genre). Although Dakota Johnson appears to be worthy of greater projects than this one, the poor dialogue kills this with it's flatness and unintentional laughs. This is nothing more than a post-millenial Harlequin Romance with pretensions. The director definitely lacks the artistic vision that was necessary to turn the novel into something of substance. Innocent virgin grabs billionaire; or at least a cardboard cutout of said billionaire and learns the prerequisite geisha-like obedience which apparently all modern up-and-coming career-girls dream of! Our heroine's roomy even dates his brother! It's a billionaire bro' tag team championship! Charlie Hunnam made a wise career choice by pulling out of this fantasy without frisson. Sad.
