    Kevin Costner, Whitney Houston and that song. Annoying to say the least!
  • June 26, 2009
    In Kevin Costner's acting Hey day and Whitney Houston was still a name we heard regularly, this corny, yet unique storyline emerged onto our screens with the song everyone will remember as being played over and over and over.

    Despite the cheesy aspects of the film, it does hav...( read more)e it?s fair share of funny quoteable lines eg: Woman in green [approaching Frank] ~ "I've been watching you all night from across the room." Frank: "Why don't you go back there. Keep watching. "

    The Diva role for Whitney's character wasn?t really a huge stretch of the imagination now and certainly by no means is it greatly acted, yet The Bodyguard still remains a very watchable film of the 90?s.

    une Whitney pas très douée en tant qu'actrice, mais une histoire assez plaisante et toujours de la bonne muusique en prime

    Kevin Costner is great in this movie, but otherwise there wasn´t much to remember. An ego film of Whitney Houston with a plot where I just waited for something exciting to happend. There was many amateurish moments and the movie was too predictable. But like I said, Kevin Costner...( read more) is the perfect bodyguard here with his mulish acting! That made this to ok entertainment!
