Malaysia’s Film Censorship Board (LPF) has banned the movie, “Fifty Shades of Grey” for being “more porn than movie”, according to The Star today, 4 February.
Mr Abdul Halim Abdul Hamid, the chairman of the board, has reportedly said the portrayal of certain sex scenes in the movie, such as acts of sado-masochism and bondage, was “not of natural sexual content”.
The movie’s distributor in Malaysia, United International Pictures, has confirmed that the film, originally slated for a 12 February release in Malaysia, would not be screened in the country.
Do you think the film will be banned or heavily censored in Singapore because of similar complaints?
