Reviews for The Bodyguard
The Bodyguard is mostly an overlong character study involving two uninteresting people we don't really want to know much about in the first place.
The thriller aspect of The Bodyguard works, but the romance does not.
You’ll get the most bang for your entertainment buck by simply buying the soundtrack. A rental of the DVD is strictly optional.
The relationship between Houston and Costner is mighty strange one, albeit profoundly problematic.
Shows how our lives are often throttled by the emotions of fear and desire.
