Storyline

- TriviaAna says "I expect you to call me Ana. I don't expect you to fetch me coffee unless you're getting some for yourself, and um, the rest we'll just make up as we go along." Melanie Griffith, Dakota Johnson's mother, said the same thing in Working Girl (1988).
- GoofsIn Christians apartment, several 'set' items changed from the first movie. Even though the writers want you to believe the second film's story picks up shortly after the end of the first film's ending. The art piece on the window wall changed. The large table in front of the window where in the first film he states that he's "Fifty shades fucked up" changed. Most visually obvious was the fireplace. This second film has a much larger one and now there's a TV above it where there was none in the first. The design of the staircase changed dramatically. The door to the playroom was white, but now it's dark.
- Quotes
Anastasia Steele: [while they are in a supermarket, Christian is pushing the cart, looking uncomfortable] When's the last time you went shopping?
Christian Grey: Houston. A week ago.
Anastasia Steele: What'd you buy?
Christian Grey: An airline.
- Crazy creditsIn the theatrical & home media releases, the brief teaser trailer for Fifty Shades Freed (2018) is shown halfway through the closing credits. On the HBO version, the trailer is deleted to go to straight into the shortened Perfect World Pictures logo.
- Alternate versionsThe running time quoted by IMDB, "1h 58m," is for the theatrical release. There is also an extended, unrated version, running about 13 minutes longer. The unrated version includes more sex and nudity and also alternate, more explicit takes, with 2 extended sex scenes plus 1 additional one, wherein the couple engage in sex after a game of billiards. It also has two scenes with Jennifer Ehle as Carla, Dakota Johnson/Anastasia's mother. Ehle is thus only credited in the unrated cut.

Featured review
The predictable plotting and the boring dialogues makes this sequel automatically uninteresting. "Fifty Shades Darker" is worst than the first movie because the characters have learned nothing and repeat the exact same unhealthy relationship. The two beautiful protagonists do their bests to treating sex like a pleasurable activity but is not enough and the result is not good. The thriller narrative, involving persons from Grey's strange past, exposes the shallowness of the story. What made the first unit of this trilogy so much better than the current version is that everything was then new. But now that we are familiar with the equipment in Christian's lavish penthouse, the novelty is gone and the boredom is here.
