Guilty Pleasure
OK. So why does it seem many haters are men? That is not the target audience. I liked the eye candy ie Dakota Johnson, Jamie Dornan. For me, one of the funniest scenes is the exchange between Ana and Hanna after Ana gets Jack's old job. Right out of Working Girl! Did anybody else pick up on that? I read only about the Fifty Shades phenomena-not read the books. Watching this film caused me to watch the first and third movies. This isn't any great film. Most films aren't expected to be cinematic classics. The best thing I liked about this movie was the soundtrack.

How can a movie that bad exist?
One of the worst movies I've seen in years. Terrible acting, no plot and pointless sex scenes.
Romantic
This film tells the story of the billionaire with a scarred past. He falls in love again with the woman who left him 18 months ago because of his alternative tastes.
When "Fifty Shades Darker" was in the cinemas, the billboards say that it is a romantic film. This is somewhat a surprise as it is famous for having a character with an alternative lifestyle. However, it is not really a surprise when I give it more thought, because the first film was mostly about them seducing each other. After watching "Fifty Shades Darker", I think it really is a romantic film. It does not get any darker, just sweeter with every minute. Both Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson are very attractive. Christian Grey's penthouse is very stylish and modern, I wish I could live there! I enjoyed watching this film. I wonder what the third one will be like.

One horrible movie in every aspect
This movie is so awful, that it is hard to find words to describe it. I really can't imagine why there are so many people that are willing to go and see in in the cinemas. This movie is not bad, because of the idea for an affair between a rich businessman and a normal girl. It is bad because the dialogues are flat, the characters are terrible and without any depth, there is no actual acting in it, and for the final the story is badly written.
It is really sad, that such a badly made movies are so popular. They destroy the idea for good movie with acting, script and everything else. And if you expect to see at least a lot of erotic in it, you may fell a bit disappointed at the end. The movie is far from that it promises to its viewers.

Predictable plotting
The predictable plotting and the boring dialogues makes this sequel automatically uninteresting. "Fifty Shades Darker" is worst than the first movie because the characters have learned nothing and repeat the exact same unhealthy relationship. The two beautiful protagonists do their bests to treating sex like a pleasurable activity but is not enough and the result is not good. The thriller narrative, involving persons from Grey's strange past, exposes the shallowness of the story. What made the first unit of this trilogy so much better than the current version is that everything was then new. But now that we are familiar with the equipment in Christian's lavish penthouse, the novelty is gone and the boredom is here.

Did you know
- TriviaAna says "I expect you to call me Ana. I don't expect you to fetch me coffee unless you're getting some for yourself, and um, the rest we'll just make up as we go along." Melanie Griffith, Dakota Johnson's mother, said the same thing in Working Girl (1988).
- GoofsIn Christians apartment, several 'set' items changed from the first movie. Even though the writers want you to believe the second film's story picks up shortly after the end of the first film's ending. The art piece on the window wall changed. The large table in front of the window where in the first film he states that he's "Fifty shades fucked up" changed. Most visually obvious was the fireplace. This second film has a much larger one and now there's a TV above it where there was none in the first. The design of the staircase changed dramatically. The door to the playroom was white, but now it's dark.
- Quotes
Anastasia Steele: [while they are in a supermarket, Christian is pushing the cart, looking uncomfortable] When's the last time you went shopping?
Christian Grey: Houston. A week ago.
Anastasia Steele: What'd you buy?
Christian Grey: An airline.
- Crazy creditsIn the theatrical & home media releases, the brief teaser trailer for Fifty Shades Freed (2018) is shown halfway through the closing credits. On the HBO version, the trailer is deleted to go to straight into the shortened Perfect World Pictures logo.
- Alternate versionsThe running time quoted by IMDB, "1h 58m," is for the theatrical release. There is also an extended, unrated version, running about 13 minutes longer. The unrated version includes more sex and nudity and also alternate, more explicit takes, with 2 extended sex scenes plus 1 additional one, wherein the couple engage in sex after a game of billiards. It also has two scenes with Jennifer Ehle as Carla, Dakota Johnson/Anastasia's mother. Ehle is thus only credited in the unrated cut.
