Fifty Shades Darker – Unmasked Edition (Blu-ray Review) – Just how boring is it possible for kinky sex to be?

June 25, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Dakota Johnson, Jamie Dornan, Eric Johnson, Kim Basinger, Bella Heathcote
Director: James Foley
Running Time: 131 mins
Certificate: 18
Release Date: June 26th 2017 (UK)

Oh, dear God. How do you manage to make a film that’s supposedly about kinky sex be this boring?

At the end of Fifty Shades Of Grey, the timid Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) and her S&M-obsessed billionaire paramour, Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan), had parted company. However, it doesn’t take long until they’re back together, with Christian promising he loves Ana enough that he wants to be her partner rather than her master. She isn’t sure, but they start dating again, and are soon negotiating a different kind of contract than the last movie. It’s a more unspoken one where they attempt to create a more equal relationship, despite Christian’s issues and ‘boundaries’ (which handily you can literally paint on him in lipstick).

It’s not going to be all smooth sailing though, as there are various figures out to cause them trouble, including the previously unseen ‘Mrs. Robinson’ character, Elena (Kim Basinger), who inducted Christian into kinkiness and isn’t quite ready to let him go. There’s also Leila (Bella Heathcote), one of Christian’s earlier submissives, and Anastasia’s boss, Jack Hyde, who may be looking to make a different sort of sexual powerplay. [Read more…]

Fifty Shades Darker Extended Trailer – Jamie Dornan & Dakota Johnson are back getting sexy once more

January 3, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

I’m not 100% sure why it’s been called an Extended Trailer, as it’s actually shorter than the last promo that dropped, but a new trailer for Fifty Shades Darker has arrived. It gives us some new footage as well as a listen to the title track from Zayn and Taylor Swift.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson return as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele in Fifty Shades Darker, the second chapter based on the worldwide bestselling “Fifty Shades” phenomenon. Expanding upon events set in motion in 2015’s blockbuster film that grossed more than $560 million globally, the new installment arrives for Valentine’s Day and invites you to slip into something a shade darker.

‘When a wounded Christian Grey tries to entice a cautious Ana Steele back into his life, she demands a new arrangement before she will give him another chance. As the two begin to build trust and find stability, shadowy figures from Christian’s past start to circle the couple, determined to destroy their hopes for a future together.

‘Also returning from Fifty Shades of Grey are Academy Award^® winner Marcia Gay Harden, Jennifer Ehle, Luke Grimes, Rita Ora, Victor Rasuk, Eloise Mumford and Max Martini, who are joined for the first time by Oscar^® winner Kim Basinger, Hugh Dancy, Bella Heathcote and Eric Johnson.

‘Fifty Shades Darker is directed by James Foley (Fear, House of Cards) and once again produced by Michael De Luca, Dana Brunetti and Marcus Viscidi, alongside E L James, the creator of the culture-spanning blockbuster series. The screenplay is by Niall Leonard, based on the novel by James.’

The movie will be in cinemas in February. [Read more…]

New Fifty Shades Darker Trailer – Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson get steamy again

December 7, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The Fifty Shades movies are a peculiar phenomenon. The first trailer for Fifty Shades Darker broke the record for most views in 24 hours, but it’s a franchise that barely seems to register for those who didn’t immediately watch the trailer, with very people in between.

Now a second trailer has arrived.

The movie will be in cinemas in February. [Read more…]

Fifty Shades Darker Trailer – Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson get steamy again

September 13, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Yesterday we got a very brief teaser for Fifty Shades Darker. That’s now been followed by the first full trailer for the movie, which shows us Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson back as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele.

It all starts off rather suave and sophisticated with a masquerade ball, before getting hot and steamy – as you would expect. However, if then starts to take things in a more obsessive thriller direction, with the introduction of new characters. There’s even a few moments that come across in the trailer like a ghost story, but presumably the movie itself isn’t going supernatural. Perhaps most shocking of all, there are moments when Christian doesn’t come across as a complete tool, and Anastasia doesn’t seem like queen of the wet flannels.

Take a look at the Fifty Shades Dark trailer below. The film will be in cinemas February 10th, 2017. [Read more…]

Fifty Shades Darker Teaser – Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson return to the Red Room

September 12, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It might only be short, but our first brief tease of Fifty Shades Darker has arrived. Despite its flaws, the first film grossed over $570 million around the world, so there’s likely to be a fair amount of anticipation for this follow-up.

The very brief synopsis simply says: ‘Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson return as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele in Fifty Shades Darker, the second chapter based on the worldwide bestselling “Fifty Shades” phenomenon.’ As you can see from the trailer, the duo are still find themselves entwined, despite the events of the first film, with the bondage loving billionaire and young literature student back in each other’s worlds.

The movie will be out February 10th, 2017. Take a look at the brief teaser below. [Read more…]

Dakota Johnson Wants Jamie Dornan To Go Full Frontal In Fifty Shades Darker

February 13, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It was a little odd that despite Fifty Shades Of Grey being most famous for being full of descriptions of full-on BDSM sex, the film version was a little coy and certainly wasn’t a showcase for Christian Grey/Jamie Dornan’s penis – although there was a brief look at the very top of it. The reason for that is that Jamie Dornan had a ‘no frontal nudity’ clause in his contract – which seems to rather go against the spirit of playing Christian Grey.

However now there’s one person who’s stepped up to try and get him to put it all on show in the sequel, Fifty Shades Darker – his co-star Dakota Johnson (who was fully nude in the first film). Talking to WatchWhatHappensLive, Andy Cohen asked about whether Dornan needs to get properly nude.

She replied: “That’s an interesting question, I’ll probably get in trouble for this answer… yeah. Yeah. I’m gonna make him get fully naked in the next one. Everybody wants to see the D, the Dornan D. We should start a movement, a campaign.”

Whether he will or not, isn’t known. It was slightly odd though, as during his modelling career Dornan had no problem taking his clothes off, and there are pics that regularly do the rounds of the internet showing off the Dornan dick. However, when playing an infamously sexual character, he got a little shy.

Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed will shoot this year for release in 2017 and 2018.

January 30, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Despite a critical mauling, Fifty Shades Of Grey ended up being one of the 10 highest grossing movies of 2015 and there are plenty of people out there who can’t wait for the sequels. Anyone who’s read the books will know that there is a major character who doesn’t appear in the first novel, but looms large over the sequels – Elena Lincoln.

Variety reports that Fifty Shades Darker has now found its Elena, as Kim Basinger is in talks for the role. The part is a key one, as Elena is Christian Grey’s business partner and his former lover, who may not be completely over their Red Room romance and isn’t impressed when Christian and Anna begin to grow closer. Her actions becoming increasingly important as the films go on.

Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan are both due to return as Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey, with Luke Grimes as Elliott Grey, Eloise Mumford as Kate, and Max Martini as Taylor. Director Sam Taylor-Johnson has left the franchise behind, with James Foley taking over the role. Both Fifty Shades Darker and the third film, Fifty Shades Freed will shoot this year for release in February 2017 and 2018.

Fifty Shades Darker Teaser – Our first look at Jamie Dornan in the sequel?

April 30, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

I’m not 100% convinced by this, but numerous sources are suggesting it’s legit and so we’re posting it!

One of the reasons for being suspicious is that Fifty Shades Darker doesn’t have a director yet, and the February 2017 release date was only announced a few days ago. However after Universal had a huge hit with Fifty Shades Of Grey it’s not too surprising they quickly want to say that more will be coming.

Apparently when it does, it will be pitched as a thriller, according to the Universal top brass. It will further follow the kinky adventures of Jamie Dornan’s Christian Grey and Dakota Johnson’s Anastasia Steele. [Read more…]
