Flat jokes, and just a bad parody to an already bad movie
4 March 2016
Fifty Shades of Black serves as the second Fifty Shades movie and the reality that these movies are still being made, even though the cast and crew knows that it sucks, but they don't care because they are just now have enough money to spend the year in Las Vegas. It's already starting to cause me even more pain.

This movie serves as a parody to Fifty Shades of Grey, but the bad thing about it is that it is not even funny or different from the same old toilet humour that is used so often in comedy movies nowadays. There was not one moment where I chuckled or even sniggered. I think I did laugh, but that might have been at the movie not with the awful cliché jokes that I've already heard in these comedy movies.

And it's such a shame to see a talented actor like Marlon Wayans, who before offered a fantastic turn with Requiem for a Dream and then made us chuckle with the first two Scary Movie films, and then to see that talent wasted in this abomination of a parody movie. I hate it when actors just become overpaid tools in movies that they know are bad but they are just in it for the money, when they know that they are better than that.

The thing is that Fifty Shades of Grey was anything but a good movie to start off with, so parodying a movie that is already bad doesn't make it any better or more enjoyable. I mean, this movie could've been funny in some places, but the dick and ball jokes that this movie overuses so many times just failed to hit.

Not to mention it's out of place references to other movies, not just Fifty Shades of Grey, but you can tell from the poster that it's making those references just to try to be funnier, and to their credit, no, they failed.

If you watch one movie early this year, Fifty Shades of Black is definitely not worth recommending when you really should just buy another ticket for Deadpool.

Overall rating 1/10.
