. . . and that’s a good thing, even if “Fifty Shades of Grey” looks like “Fifty Shades of Lame.” The reviews are in and they’re not pretty. Dakota Johnson, however, is beautiful and the film may be worth a look just due to her presence.

Here’s David Medsker from Bullz-Eye.com on Dakota and the film:

God love Dakota Johnson for putting her career on the line by making this film, and maybe it’s the Stockholm Syndrome talking (trapped in a theater, unable to escape, slowly starting to sympathize with my captors), but I found myself liking her more and more as the film went on. The one smart plot piece of the story is that she’s a virgin. Without that, the rest of the story doesn’t make sense. She isn’t just deflowered by Christian: she’s sexually liberated, and it makes sense that someone with no experience might respond to Christian Grey the way she does. Jamie Dornan is going to get crushed for his performance here, as he is flat as a pancake, but it’s not all his fault. His character, as it’s written, has the charm of a toaster. There’s not much Dornan can do about that. Also, Danny Elfman did the score, and not a single note of it stood out. To say that this movie disappoints on a number of levels would be greatly understating the point.

At least she comes across well . . .

Kate Bosworth always looks incredible. Check out those sexy heels!
