Review of Lolita

Lolita (1962)
6/10
Very annoying film.

I can't believe that Stanley Kubrick made a sex comedy. In this film almost all characters are extremely unlikeable, most of them are extremely flawed and selfish people and the whole plot revolves around their selfishness. It has a surprisingly dark ending, but why did they show it at the beginning of the film, spoiling the whole film? Some films, which show ending in the beginning, show the wrong glimpse of the ending and that makes the last act very different knowing that you were fooled, but in this film, the ending is exactly what you see in the beginning making it a direct spoiler and an abysmal storytelling decision.
