An Education(2009)- User Reviews

I don't get it...how do the critics glorify this story? the guy is in his thrities, married with children and he seduced a sixteen year old with her and her parents consent. Just because he's charming that makes it ok? This is another Lolita story, except the girl is a little older (16) and the guy is a little younger(30's). But it's the same horrific premise - older guy longing for an innocent young girl. On top of it he has sex with her and takes her virginity. I can't say it wasn't hot, but it's just plain wrong on so many levels. Even his wife admited she's just a child and I think I heard her say it wasn't the first time he's done that. No wonder he just drives off at the end drinking the bottle of alcohol he had in his trunk. The guy is a scumbag and the girl realizes it at the end. Please pay attention what he does for a living and how he buys his houses for cheap also!
I will stop here...don't want to demonize the charming hot jewish married guy who asks a 16 year old to marry him.
