Well, this is the second bad franchise she has been in.
50 shades is at least competently made trash, not designed by committee
It also brought in a handsome box office. Does not mean it is a good movie (it was properly horrible in my view, could not watch it, but some of the reviews were fun!), just that people with tastes different to mine exist in numbers. From what I can see about the new release, we won't be able to use this defence here.
The movie franchise got worse as the book's author started to interfere more.
I never saw 50 shades (though if the premise appeals to anyone they should read some stjepan sejic, he did graphic novels in response to it that are informed by actual knowledge of the topic), but folding ideas’s reviews of them made them sound like a competently made piece of trash followed by two pieces of trash ruined by an artist and committee.
The book is bad, the first movie at least lampshades a lot of the stupidity.
It's a shame, because it's very easy to be typecast as an actor when you repeatedly star in flops, and while few directly criticise her performance in either movie, I imagine she'd be concerned that she'll be the first name on the list for lazy cash-grabs, and bottom of the list for anything she'd like to do.
It's why I question those that criticise her for criticising the movie. After all, this is her career, and if there were shenanigans that resulted in a poor movie that wasn't what she expected to come out, she should call it out.
It’s just so tough breaking in these days as the child of two famous actors.
Nepo truce?
She could embrace it and become another Nicolas Cage
