'The Bodyguard' makes for entertaining viewing from the early 1990s, as Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston team up to strong effect.
Costner plays the titular role of Frank, very nicely might I add. You like the character pretty instantaneously, feeling as if he is the perfect man to protect Rachel. Houston, as the latter, is impressively good given it's her film debut, I really enjoy her performance throughout the 129 minutes.
That aforementioned run time is probably too long, as the film does drag its legs as the third act is on the horizon; everything before and after that moment is entertaining, though. Another critique of mine would be the editing, which is choppy in parts.
Houston's soundtrack is obviously excellent, while the premise is certainly engaging. It doesn't do everything else perfectly, but this is still one to watch and have a very fine time with.
