Suite 16

Orange is a difficult color because it doesn't breath life: it's close to red blood and it's the color for rust, decayed things. Now you have been warned because in this movie, this color is everywhere: on the walls, on the dresses, on the bricks, on the video games. It's even subliminal because the movie stars a Dutch man.

This could have been the sequel of "Costa" because it's the same beginning: young Dutch men coming abroad to sea, sex and sun, leaving away their inhibitions at their homeland.

The problem is that such confused adult meets here a disabled man who turned suicidal. The best they can do is to have sex with women, with men. Imagine that for forty minutes, those two lunatic doesn't leave the suite and while one is with prostitutes, the other watches it!

Well, it's really crap, crippled artistic vision. I don't know what Geraldine Pailhas was looking for here. Sure, disabled people suffer from their state and they must have someone to live, but not this way, thanks!

I loved this movie! It was fast paced and full of insight. It's a movie for people who love to analyze story lines and theorize. I definitely recommend it! If you are one of those people that love to watch action packed movies with no meaning behind them, that don't make you think, DO NOT WATCH THIS FILM! IT IS NOT FOR YOU! This movie is strictly for thinkers.....and for those who gave this film bad reviews...what were you watching??? Like I said this is only for thinkers! The writing is incredible and should be noted as much as the directing and the acting should....if it wasn't for those three elements, this movie would never have got my vote as it would never have sustained it's detail. Excellent Film!

Let me say from the outset that Pete Postlethwaite is one of our best character actors and that Charlea Higson is a fine writer of skewed noir thrillers (read 'Getting Rid of Mister Kitchen' if you appreciate grim, black farce). But what the hell went wrong here? A blond g*t who couldn't act his way out of a wet Kleenex, characters who've stepped out of a bad student improvisation project and sex scenes as erotic as Spam that's been left in a warm place for three weeks. I think there's some statement about voyeurism, sexuality and control trying to slip out here, but I'm too dumbfounded by the abject crapness of the entire project to remember. Are we allowed to give minus points?

A wheelchair bound millionaire struggles with impotence. He catches the services of a beautiful and tough blond hustler named Chris. Chris is no more than a common thug and he is out on a lamb escaping a murder charge. Glover uses him to lure women so he can watch Chris fornicate with a barrage of willing women to pay for Chris' services.

This movie is rather slow and has corny dialogue. Kammerling's physical appeal with his chiseled beauty and glorious brawn carry the film so far. But Postelwaite's creepy control takes charge as we see him take advantage of Chris.

If you want to see some softcore sex with good looking people and an old voyeur in a wheelchair, this can be satisfying. For eye candy purposes this film is alright.

The whole point of antonie kamerling in suite 16 is eye candy. The character played by pete is obviously sexually repressed and finds the character played by Antonie extremely attractive yet he is unable to act upon it due to his physical deformaties. The woman only comes into it to make the character played by antonie jealous. antonie plays an excellent role in what could be called, at best, a bad movie. He was hired for his beauty and he used it to its full extent in the inadequate directing of this movie.
