6.2??? Really? Wel , 16 years later, this is my favorite movie so i thought il contribute to the ratings . Amazing whitney with gorgeous kevin, deadly combination . Its nice triller with hint of a romance, LOVE IT

This movie has a dark atmosphere, which is something I love about it. It's not like most love stories. This movie is so different from a typical romance film. It doesn't just focus on the romance, it focuses on Rachel's career, the stalker, Frank's resistance to grow close to his client. That's what makes this movie so special. "The Bodyguard" is one of Whitney's best performances. You can tell she is in her prime with her career. She and Kevin Costner are outstanding in their performances. I love the performances throughout the movie most..Kevin Costner portrays Frank Farmer, a no-nonsense bodyguard hired by the singers associates that struggles with Marron's devotion to her career and her own deluded view that she is invincible. Houston plays a character that parallels her real life, an accomplished actress and singer who is being stalked by an obsessive fan. Bodyguard was to be the big vehicle to launch Houston into a mega film career. Although Houston's performance is commendable for her first film effort, her shining moments in the film are when she showcases the soundtrack, which is incredible. Costner is strong in his stern, powerful role. If you like a who-done-it film, amazing music, watching Kevin Costner, as well as just the right mix of romance and damsel in distress, you've got to get The Bodyguard (and get the soundtrack while you're at it).Overall rating: 8 out of 10.

Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston star in this 1992 drama. Costner (The Untouchables) plays Frank Farmer, an ex-secret service agent who is hired to protect feisty, pop singer, Rachel Marron (Houston) who has an obsessed, crazed fan threatening her. After getting off to a rocky start, Frank and Rachel get romantically involved with each other in the process and he also gets to know her family too. This is a good romantic drama with a few suspenseful moments, Costner & Houston are great in it, had good chemistry with each other and who can forget Houston's hit song, "I Will Always Love You." Also, the late, Steve McQueen and Diana Ross were originally considered for the leads. I recommend this.

I Will Always Love You will be remembered for a long time with this movie. In fact, singers imitating Whitney Houston are still winning Karoke Contests using this song 20 years later. The power of this song is perhaps more powerful than the film itself.Still I would argue this film is one of the roles which helped establish Kevin Costner's career as he is excellent in his title role. Whitney Houston gets to play herself in a lot of ways here which makes her acting very effective. There is a lot good about this film.The creepy part is hindsight. While the body guard in this has to deal with an insane killer trying to shoot Whitney, the reality is she really needed a bodyguard for an entirely different reason - to stop her substance abuse. Her line "I am not a morning person" is one of the cliché lines of a person with that problem. That makes the film creepy in a real retrospect fashion.When you look at Houston in this film, she looks as great as she ever has. She is actually portrayed as a beautiful young rock star who her fans and a lot of others would fall in love with. I have the same feelings for her here as many would in that her character portrays success in the way that it is often achieved, at the loss of a personal life for the star. The script then exploits that perfectly by having her fall in love with her Bodyguard. That makes all too much sense and I have felt often that singers who die too soon tragically like Houston has fit the way the script is written like a glove.
