Fifty Shades of Grey Ratings & Reviews
Razorbitz
April 12, 2025
Neither titilating nor particularly taboo-breaking, the first Fifty Shades feels more like an unintentional comedy held aloft by the mutual incompetence of the lead actors doing their best to generate chemistry where there is none. Even the uncut, "uncensored" version provides sex scenes that only a puritan would find shocking. Goofy doesn't even begin to describe the "dominant" Christian Grey, who steals the scenes in all the wrong ways. Never have I seen a romantic lead with less charisma or allure, whos command of the screen can be likened more to an autistic teenager who discovered the gym and learned all there is to know about women from porn. For what its worth, the soundtrack is great, and the share of laughs and baffling moments make this better than the worst romance I've ever seen. Cinematography has its stand out shots wasted on Fifty Shades of Grey, but it is in the expert camera work that the sexually aggressive biting of toast and hammy line delivery--and the otherwise mundane intercourse--that make the film a tolerable and on times entertaining watch. It's never much better than the cheapest smut Cinemax used to produce, but as a classy delivery of the world's most famous fan fiction it's hard not to respect the flourishes found throughout despite everything else.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
I wish it had either been much better or much worse.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Fifty Shades of Grey delivers, however ponderously, on its promise of pop transgressiveness.
Vox
Alex Abad-Santos
This alien quality is what makes Dornan so effective as Christian.
International Business Times
Monica Castillo
Actress Dakota Johnson brings humor, sensitivity and vulnerability to Anastasia, making her the clear breakout performance of Fifty Shades [of Grey].
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Basically, they made a lousy, mid-2000s-era Katherine Heigl romance with a handful of explicit sex scenes spliced throughout the familiar clichés.
Austin Chronicle
Josh Kupecki
It's a bondage movie without much perversion, a love story without much passion, and ultimately, a film burdened with expectations it could never fulfill. It never quite hits as hard as you want it to.

Leonard Maltin
"Fifty Shades of Grey," which gingerly crosses over into the questionable subject mark, may not be the film some of the book's readers were hoping to witness.
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
Think of it as the "Downton Abbey" of bondage, designed neither to menace nor to offend but purely to cosset the fatigued imagination.
ChristyLemire.com
Christy Lemire
It realizes this story is ridiculous in ways the book itself never could. It has an actual sense of humor.
The Atlantic
Christopher Orr
It's been said that the movie contains 20 minutes of sex; if this is the case, it must contain at least 40 minutes of Ana biting her lip or putting a pencil in her mouth.
Linoleum Knife
Alonso Duralde
Less interested in sexual power dynamics than in lassoing this guy into what the movie perceives as "normalcy."
Grantland
Wesley Morris
The film doesn't culminate in anything. It's a bunch of scenes that end before any kind of satisfying conclusion.
RogerEbert.com
Susan Wloszczyna
In the annals of sexually-charged event cinema, "Fifty Shades of Grey" barely lights a candle let alone combusts with unbridled forbidden passion.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Isn't the stuff of bondage and discipline, sexual role play, silky blindfolds, and whips and floggers supposed to be, well, exciting?
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
Johnson has a natural warmth, intelligence, and humor that come across on screen and go a long way toward making the movie less silly than it could have been.
Slate
Meghan Daum
A generic romance cynically engineered to appeal to the lowest common denominator of female fantasy.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Johnson is rather sweet, though, and if she played a role that required her to look more than alternately smitten and poleaxed, she could score big. But now that Fifty Shades is poised to be a franchise, will she have that chance?
Boston Globe
Meredith Goldstein
The director of the much-anticipated adaptation, Sam Taylor-Johnson, made what could have been a trashy TV movie into well-conceived cinema.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Cary Darling
Yet the film's biggest problem is its two stars. Despite all the ripped abs and exposed breasts, blindfolds and cuffs, there are few sparks between them. Without that, Fifty Shades of Grey feels as cold and sterile as Grey's sleek penthouse.
