    Kevin Costner, Whitney Houston and that song. Annoying to say the least!

    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.

    Apart from the predictable romance storyline there are some quite engrossing thriller moments in this generally enjoyable film. I also have to point out that as someone who's more familiar with parodies of movie scenes than the movies themselves (in this case The Simpsons), it's ...( read more)always nice to discover the original version in all its earnestness lol.

    It was originally intended to make this movie in the seventies with Steve McQueen and Diana Ross in the leading roles, but that the movie never got made because it was "too controversial". The cause of the controversy was presumably the mixed-race love-affair betwee...( read more)n Frank Farmer and Rachel Marron, as there is little else in the script that might upset anyone. There is a respectable performance from Kevin Costner as Frank Farmer, a man who on the surface seems cold and detached but who hides his emotions under the surface. Whitney Houston is a beautiful woman, with a beautiful voice which was shown off to good advantage in this movie. Her character is supposed to be an actress as well as a singer - the finale actually takes place as she receives a "Best Actress" award at the Oscars. Unfortunately, it seems unlikely that Whitney Houston will ever emulate her alter ego in this respect, as her acting is certainly not in the same class as her voice. She seems to have too small an emotional range, and it is no surprise that her subsequent film career has been so patchy. The Bodyguard is a perfectly adequate thriller-romance, if at times too slow-moving, but I felt that it might have been better with a more commanding female lead.

    This movie is in my opinion one of the greatest love stories of all time. The soundtrack and Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston make this movie one of my all-time favorite movies! :) Just great. :)
