Dr. Joyce Carmicheal is a shy woman, who also happens to be one of the most renowned African American surgeons in Atlanta. She doesn't have much of a social life, with no husband or boyfriend until she meets billionaire investor Tyrone Bernard, who introduces her to the kinkier side of sex. Joyce becomes more experimental and bold as their erotic relationship develops.
Austin critic Korey Coleman of Double Toasted slated the film, criticizing the storytelling, characters and ending.[6] Movie Nation gave Kinky 2 stars out of five, comparing it to 50 Shades of Grey, but for Black people. They said the movie has "Bad acting by pretty people, awesome sex scenes but not a lot of S&M wear, What is this, “Fifty Shades of Ebony?”"[7]
