Reviews for The Bodyguard
Shows how our lives are often throttled by the emotions of fear and desire.

The thriller aspect of The Bodyguard works, but the romance does not.

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.

Serviceable story with Houston making an impressive film debut.
04/29/05
The relationship between Houston and Costner is mighty strange one, albeit profoundly problematic.

Why can't the real Oscars be like this?
