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,

What Christmas Means To Me

Recently, I was asked what Christmas means to me and to be honest around the holidays I become irritated and grouchy. I have been in such a funk that I was called Scrooge and The Grinch. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't hate Christmas I just despise what it now stands for. Everyone is so caught up in buying presents, because the kids have huge lists or they are in competition with others who can spend the most money; that they don't remember the true meaning.  Christmas isn't about only about gifts, decorating trees, Santa Clause, it's about spending time with friends and family...making wonderful memories. Memories are going to stay with you forever, not gifts. This Christmas take the time to appreciate one another, rebuild relationships and most importantly show the world some love.  Happy Holidays. Love Always, Candace Nicole
