Candace Nicole's review of the movie Fifty Shades of Grey

First, I want to say congratulations to the actors, Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan, their on screen chemistry was believable and they both played the parts very well (even though they do not look how I imagined them). The sex scenes were AMAZING!!!!! Graphic enough but done tastefully.
In most books that have been made into movies, us true book readers know to expect some changes. It makes perfect sense because a movie can’t show/explain everything like a book. But I was disappointed in the HUGE changes they made in Fifty Shades of Grey.

In the books, Anastasia Steel had a very close relationships with her best friend Katherine Kavanagh and Jose Rodriguez, who she said was like a brother to her. What people need to understand is that Katherine loved Anastasia and even though she thought Christian was “hot”, she kept warning Anastasia that “he’s dangerous.” There is also a time when Katherine and Christian get into a heated argument, because Anastasia is always crying since he entered her life.

Jose (not knowingly) causes a lot of conflict between Christian and Anastasia. Jose is in love with her and Christian is jealous of their relationship. Both men, don’t care for each other and it’s evident, in the books.

When Anastasia lost her virginity to Christian, in the movie, the scene was hot but romantic. In reality, when I read the scene, I thought Christian was the biggest asshole. I felt this way, because instead of being gentle with her, he thrust himself inside of her. I get that you don’t make love but damn at least let the girl get accustomed to you.
Anastasia loved her car, an old VW Beetle aka "Wanda", which was gifted to her from Jose’s mother. But when Christian saw her car, he had a temper tantrum calling it a “death trap.” During the movie, he wasn’t fazed by seeing her car, he was more concerned with trying to convince her to engage in sexual activities.

My final issue…where was Ms. Gail Jones? For you all who don’t know who that is, she is Christian’s house keeper. Come on, Ms. Jones was always around except for on the weekends.

Here are my ratings for the movie Fifty Shades of Grey:
A+ for sex scenes
C+ for overall movie

Share your thoughts with me.
Love Always,
Candace Nicole

Missed you!

Hi everyone!   It's been awhile since I have written to you all, but sometimes life just gets in the way. A lot has happened in the last three years, some sad and others amazing. Let's focus on the fun things...my family and I moved into a wonderful neighborhood. I have been social and hanging out with a few ladies for girls night which is a good time...laughing and drinking. I've been very active in my son's school, I'm there so much that kids have asked me if I live there. I have adopted two beautiful fur babies, Olivia Nicole and Isabella...I'm obsessed with my cats. Yes, I will admit I'm the crazy cat lady. In the Spring I will be releasing a new book. It's so much fun writing about Delilah.  What have you been up too?                                          ...
