Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT When the Fifty Shades of Grey movie was released in 2015, it made a splash, but plenty of great movies are comparable to the Fifty Shades series. Based on the books by E.L. James, Fifty Shades of Grey focuses on the central relationship between Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey , who push each other emotionally and through physical intimacy.
10 365 Days Directed by Barbara Białowąs & Tomasz Mandes Close 365 Days is remarkably similar to Fifty Shades of Grey in that both are based on books and deal with a sexually intense dynamic between the lead characters. However, 365 Days blurs the line between consent and abuse and has received criticism for its depiction of such an unhealthy dynamic. While Ana and Christian have their fair share of issues in the Fifty Shades movies, it's not as blatantly problematic.
Though reactions to the film were mixed at its premiere, it's something of a cult classic today. The star-studded cast compels the audience to keep watching the machinations of such unlikeable characters. However, all the horrible ways the characters manipulate and hurt each other are on par with the source material. At the turn of the century, when the film came out, comedies and dramas that dealt with adolescent sexuality were reaching their height and becoming common in mainstream media.
Additionally, both After and Fifty Shades faced criticism for the treatment of women onscreen and depicted behavior that could be considered borderline abusive. This isn't uncommon for films of this genre, and it should be remembered that these works aren't aspirational and should be viewed through a lens of pure fantasy and escapism.
While many films that play with erotic fantasies and role-play simulate games of cat-and-mouse, Basic Instinct genuinely places a psychological mind game at the center of the story. Unfortunately, Sharon Stone faced backlash for her exceptional performance as Catherine Tramell, a modernized iteration of the femme fatale in the landmark neo-noir movie. Her complex and intense relationship with Nick Curran leads both characters deeper into a web of lies and murder that keeps the audience guessing.
