Reception
The score received mixed response from music critics. Filmtracks wrote "It is disappointing to declare that Elfman's "Fifty Shades" scores have become less interesting with each sordid encounter,but it's safe to continue recommending Fifty Shades of Grey as the only score album of the series worth exploring. That and the nipple clamps and butt plugs,of course." [3] Jonathan Broxton of Movie Music UK wrote "Danny Elfman’s contribution to these three risible films is probably the most worthwhile thing associated with them. They don’t come anywhere close to being the best examples of their writing styles –he has been more romantic,more fun and upbeat,and more exciting on many scores elsewhere –but you won’t need that naughty film reviewer’s safe word to get out of listening to them,and you won’t need to hide them from your parents." [4] Elfman's score "eternally crescendos like a telenovela about to cut to commercial break". [5] Simon Abrams and Alex de Campi of The Hollywood Reporter called it a "bombastic" score. [6] Mia Pidlaoan of Screen Rant while reviewing Elfman's best works listed the trilogy,including Freed; [7] she called it as an "inquisitive" score and "gives the movies more depth than what meets the eye."
