Honestly, the whole experience would fare better as a skit rather than a feature-length film

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 4, 2017

A horrible movie and an even worse parody, it's sad that one ends up laughing less with it than with 'Fifty shades of Grey'. [Full review in Spanish]

A moment of Netflix product placement suggests the idea that this would have been better as one no-filler hour of television.

The message remains, ultimately, one of female empowerment ... but here it's presented through an endless blizzard of latex genitalia, racial epithets and bodily fluids.

There are undoubtedly four or five one-liners that will have you in stitches, but given the scattergun approach to jokes, that makes for a rather minuscule percentage.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 23, 2016

Another depressing "cinema parody" that isn't half as amusing as the film(s) it wants us to laugh at.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 13, 2016

50 Shades of Black does, at least, have to good grace to be 50 times more entertaining than the original.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 11, 2016

The laziest visual gags are accompanied by a cavalcade of insensitive, vulgar jokes that never work no matter how many silly faces are pulled.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 11, 2016

Woefully uninspired and toxically unfunny, this film is so rotten it could necrotize your soul. Horrible, just horrible.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 10, 2016

Fifty Shades of Black is crude and uninspired - the latest (and hopefully last) in a literary and cinematographic bloodline which should be sterilised hereafter.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 10, 2016

Even the idea that Fifty Shades of Grey might require parody seems ludicrous.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 10, 2016

A spoof of the franchise that started out as Twilight fan fiction offers up another barrel for Marlon Wayans to scrape.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 10, 2016

To say that Fifty Shades of Black is utterly, utterly laugh-free doesn't quite adequately capture just how anti-funny it is.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 7, 2016

Predictable but unexpectedly enlightened.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 7, 2016

By setting his sights on the film adaptation of EL James' bestseller Fifty Shades of Grey, Wayans finally finds a target that offers him a valid excuse for his trademark crudeness.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 7, 2016

How do you satirize something that's already a joke?

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 15, 2016

It's just awful! A failed "comedy", full of brutish attempts of grotesque humor and bad taste, horrible in every aspect. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Feb 11, 2016

I don't know what's worse, if paying the movie ticket or losing an hour and a half that nobody is giving me back. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Feb 11, 2016

Fifty Shades of Black is one of the worse movies of 2015. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 2/10 | Feb 6, 2016

In the full movie, laughs are virtually nonexistent.
