Sam Taylor Johnson's 'Fifty Shades of Grey' has received an 18 and over certificate by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), it has been revealed.

The film that stars Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey and Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steele is the first directorial venture of Johnson and is all set to hit the theatres in mid- February, the BBC reported.

Johnson told the Independent that the sex scenes are pretty intense, so she was sure that people are going to feel aroused but she has seen them so many times that she tends to forget.

The movie is making the news for its strong sex and nudity content.
