I havent read the book yet. The hype of the book now has all eyes on this movie now.. Most of my friends are going to watch this.. I still havent decided.

But I'm very interested in the love story of these 2 characters.

Sad as it sounds I'm being dragged to watch this with my friends and sisters on Saturday.

I had such a great plan for this Saturday to bake an Oreo and nutella cheesecake.. eat it and hit the gym after hehehe.. Oh well..

" the feminists hate 50 Shades of Grey because Ana is submissive and Mr. Grey is dominant. It's essentially a Patriarchal Rape Fantasy, and feminists hate women's sexuality even more than Conservative men do. The same feminists that hate the idea of 50 Shades would be praising a similar novel up and down if the roles were reversed. If it was a high powered woman CEO Dominatrix that loves to spank young studly pool boys, the feminists would love it (even though it would leave them drier than the Sahara Desert.) But the fact the novel essentially portrays traditional roles — the man is powerful, the woman is submissive — they hate it."

Feminists like and dislike are not the ultimate criteria for why a movie is not good enough. Check the critics.
