Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
MonsterPerfect Good idea lost in the noise
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Mihai Toma An apparently filthy rich guy meets a poor but attractive young girl, eager for a new and more interesting life. This new person that enters her life is about to show her a part of fetishism and fantasy that she never thought about before.It's an ordinary comedy inspired directly from "50 Shades of Grey" and seems to take the parody part to the extreme. It simply makes fun of everything portrayed in the original movie, without any shame (which could be a good thing), but unfortunately without any sense of fun. It tries desperately to make you laugh but as it happens with every single movie that does this, it fails miserably. You struggle to find a couple of funny scenes, laughter being something rare in this one although it's supposed to be a full-time comedy. The plot is not something to take into account as well as all the characters from this so called movie.It's not a disappointment because didn't have high expectations regarding it but it is without any doubt a very bad movie from every point of view, something from which you should run, far, far away.
Leonardo Sousa It is not today that Marlon Wayans invests in parodies - in fact, he only succeeded in parodies. From All The World in Panic to Paranormal Inactivity, several were the genres and blockbusters that went through their not always funny and often appealing jokes. With fifty shades of black, an obvious parody of fifty shades of gray, the situation does not change much. Only this time, Wayans satirizes a bad movie by nature. Want a better way than scolding him than pointing out all his many faults?Fifty Tones in Black - Foto It is with this proposal that Fifty Tones in Black can even amuse at certain moments. The story is exactly the same, and filmed following the same scenes and scenes from the Sam Taylor-Johnson-directed show - all to highlight how crude the "love story" is between Hannah Steele (Kali Hawk) and Christian Black Wayans, who else?). Of course, as the protagonists are now black, the script explores various jokes around racial prejudice, either by reversing situations in relation to whites or by quoting icons such as Wesley Snipes and Bill Cosby. And, as it could not be but in a film of the Wayans, sometimes it takes heavy in the Bactria.It is at this point that the film complicates, and quite a lot. No matter how conceptually interesting and really good jokes, especially when the main characters enter the famous red room, sequences like the quote to Magic Mike and the exaggerations arising from Black's sexual problems are unnecessary. But on the other hand, that's what Wayans fans expect. On the plus side, this time, they come in smaller dosages and scattered throughout the feature film. That is, they are more "palatable" - if one can use this term when seeing nonsense as the scene of the outgoing navel.Merging embarrassing moments with others where it is possible to laugh with gusto - attention to the clever drafts of the sodomy's session -, Fifty Tons of Black is a very irregular film that works best when viewed as a huge hoax on top of Fifty Shades of Gray. Curiously, or inevitably, it turns out to be better than the satirized - and far superior to the horrific Paranormal Inactivity 1 and 2, also starring Wayans.
hoxjennifer This movie is better suited to a YouTube mini series or a Vine-style comedy. It is hilarious, but only if you don't actually watch the whole thing in one sitting.I watched this movie during study breaks at about 10-20 minute increments at a time. It is definitely cringe-worthy and there are some scenes where the humour is really grasping at straws.But one thing the film has going for it, is that it really follows the original 50 Shades to a T, and when it pokes fun at it, it's really spot on. I personally hated 50 Shades of Grey, and enjoyed spending my breaks entertaining myself with senseless humour every so often. I can't imagine actually sitting through the whole 1 hour and a half of it in one sitting, but I did appreciate the laughs this movie gave me. Best enjoyed in increments - Probably not the best compliment a movie could have, but it does enhance the watching experience in my opinion.
thesar-2 Holy crap, I'm might get slack for this and I might be whack, but damn, did I crack up on this black…spoof.I have heard nothing but bad things about this movie. Up and down, people and critics hated it. Plus it came and went like how fast the Christian in this film had sex. But, 30 seconds in, a laugh was forced out of me and I found myself laughing through to the end.That said, yes, admittedly, a ton of jokes did not work. Many forced, many just retreaded bad stereotypes they ran into the ground. But, for the times that they hit the head of the nail...I was almost in tears laughing. And to top it off, it was 100x more enjoyable than the "serious" movie it spoofed: Fifty Shades of Grey. Come to think of it, I laughed in both movies. Only this movie was intended to make me laugh.Like the other Wayans' project, Scary Movie, which, for the record, is way funnier, the movie is almost a shot-by-shot remake/satire of Fifty Shades of Grey. Sadly, as much as I've tried to forget that "experience," I recall a ton here in …Black as was in …Grey. Again, there are a ton of scenes and jokes that just didn't work and were foreseen minutes in advance, but for the parts that did have me bust out loud, it worked. I know the criticisms, wait, actually, make that I *don't* know the criticisms. I haven't read, heard or seen anyone else's reviews – something I don't do before I see a movie and especially before I write my take, but I have heard people didn't like this much. I just could not hold back some laughter. I truly had a great time here. Enough to see a second time? Eh, maybe. Perhaps I was just in a good mood. I dunno. But, I do know this: I just finished this and I did have a good time here. Take that for what it's worth. Go in fresh, forget the complaints and maybe you'll laugh, as well.ESPECIALLY if you hated Fifty Shades of Grey as much as I did. ***Final thoughts: Man, I love to be surprised. Sometimes I love when my expectations are so low and the creative team of a film completely blows me away. They did it here and after what I heard about the upcoming Ghostbusters remake that I am (as of now, July 12, 2016) dreading…I hope I am proved wrong there and I have a great time with their vision as well.
