Fifty Shades Of Grey

[Arthur Little]

Watched part of it a couple of years ago on TV, my opinion, poorly made film, bad acting and an absolute rubbish storyline Arthur, if you want to watch a great sexy and thrilling film Arthur 'Basic Instinct' is the one to watch.

Didn't realise it'd already been shown on television, Michael. ... given the film was only made 3 years ago!

Watched it simply because I'd been intrigued as to all the apparent publicity it had engendered. But ... the storyline was non~existent.

Sadomasochism/Bondage IMO, is BOTH utterly repellent & disgusting! How on Earth ANYONE can possibly take "pleasure" (be it sexual or otherwise) in inflicting such pain and torture on another human being, is beyond my comprehension! Moreover, even though I'm fairly sure I've seen Basic Instinct, I'd very much doubt if it sank to anything like the same depths of depravity.

Correction, wifey told me that she had bought it on DVD a couple of years ago; such an uninteresting film, I'd forgotten she'd purchased it. Basic Instinct though, is very well made, and very cleverly edited. It really holds your interest all the way through!
