The Movie Doesn't Actually Have That Much Sex

Listen, based on the previews and the way everyone talks about the book, I was expecting more than half of the movie to be hot sex. Actually, closer to 90 minutes of the 125-minute running time. In truth, though, there's maybe 20 to 30 minutes total sexy time, and some of it isn't even hardcore or kinky.
The harsh truth I learned is that the story is much more about their tumultuous relationship and their opposing wants. Anastasia (Dakota Johnson) does not, as I assumed, throw herself into Christian's (Jamie Dornan) world. She actually resists it every step of the way, all the way to the end. I'm not saying I was mad they didn't have hot sex the whole time — I just would've liked a heads-up.
