It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

This film tells the story of a young woman who interviews a rich businessman.When you watch a parody, you know it is exactly what it is that you are watching. It is ridiculous, scandalous and gross, but it works. The film is so funny that I just cannot stop laughing. The sets are really stylish as well, so it is not the typical cheap parody.

I've read the original E.L.James books are actually more accurate to the books than the a real Fifty Shades series using direct quotes and Easter eggs. It is an absolute hilarious film like 'Meet the Blacks'. The postmodernism also was high in this which made its parodorical nature.

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.

50 shades of black lampoons the much over-rated 50 shades of gray movie and book quite successfully. I must point out that I was no fan of the original; I found it quite drab, unexciting and appalling in its messaging so I was interested to see someone had done a send-up.The movie's very undergraduate and crude humour is bound to offend some people, and it could have worked better in a comedy sketch format TV show, but seriously, the original was so bad this has to be fair game. I was surprised this made it to cinemas; I suspect it went straight to DVD in this country and that's not so surprising really.I did give this an extra star for Florence Henderson's scene; there's something especially naughty seeing Mrs Brady in THAT sort of scene...
