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.
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.
