“Fifty Shades of Black” (Open Road)
This witless, aggressively foulmouthed, ultimately torturous spoof of 2015’s “Fifty Shades of Grey” swaps the original’s sadomasochism for mind-numbing amounts of dirty talk. Marlon Wayans, who co-wrote with Rick Alvarez, cavorts through unfunny sexual set pieces with Kali Hawk joining in the fetid frivolity and Michael Tiddes directing.
Strong sexual content, including full nudity and lewd banter, occasional drug use, pervasive rough and crude language.
