Former Secret Service agent Frank Farmer (Kevin Costner) is a no nonsense bodyguard who doesn't like to get involved with his clients or stay around too long. Rachel Marron (Whitney Houston) is a pop diva with a stalker. Her manager Devaney (Bill Cobbs) begs Frank to work for her. She is reluctantly to have the bodyguard interfere with her life, and it's obvious that they haven't told her the worst of the situation.Written by Lawrence Kasdan and directed by Mick Jackson, this is a very standard and predictable thriller. Kevin Costner is very solid as the straight laced guard. Some may downgrade the movie because of Whitney Houston. However I found her to be a good natural performer especially for someone who is untrained. She actually adds a sense of reality. There is no denying that she has the persona of a pop diva. And it helps to have her great soundtrack to prove the point. The romance is a bit corny. That's probably its biggest weak point. The movie expects a little too much from an acting novice.

it is the best definition for this film. not bad, not good, only virtue remains the soundtrack. only remarkable character - Houston voice. it is a form of market. romance, slices from a diva life, errors of a man, thriller crumbs, costumes, tension, Kevin Costner as Prince Charming. and that is all. but its secret is not complicated - it is the film of its admirers. the public of easy stories, the public of Houston or Costner, the readers of pink literature and the public of magazines. so, it is not inspired verdict to define it as mistake. soft movie, it is one of movies who can be a nice occasion for perfect time with girlfriend and for joy to discover, again, an amazing voice.

I'm one to not like a lot of sex scenes, but I wish there was more romance between Rachel/Frank.... Overall I still love the movie. Hearing Whitney's voice however brought emotions to my ears, because her voice is beautiful, as well as she in no longer with us:( I like the suspense with a little romance all mix in one. As written in some of the previous reviews I saw about there being no chemistry between Kevin/Whitney? I notice it, but it's not throughout the entire movie... I saw chemistry on/off.In conclusion, it was a great little movie, even my guy enjoys watches it, he sure isn't one for soft movies, but when a movie is great, its that! thumbs up to the late Whitney. a special thumbs up to the sexy Kevin Costner!
