The Fifty Shades of Grey love scene in the red room was uncomfortable
Oh, Fifty Shades of Grey. The infamous series of books developed a reputation bigger than the film's budget, to the point that just about everyone was talking about it. Fans made the books into bestsellers, as noted by NBC News, and what started out as nothing more than Twilight fan fiction took on a life of its own as readers were introduced to the world of BDSM (via Forbes). Once a movie adaptation was announced, the series got even hotter and heavier.
But in the final film installment of the series, Fifty Shades Freed — which topped the weekend box office – when the main characters enter into Christian Grey's "red room," things get...interesting. The most shocking moment in the scene is when viewers are shown all the toys that Grey has, which include some seriously NSFW items.
While that alone doesn't make things entirely uncomfortable, the lack of chemistry between Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan made the love scene seriously awkward. While it was meant to be hot, it just wasn't, and instead was an oafish encounter that even the most devout nun would yawn at.
