Genre sentiment is exactly my cup of tea, but The Bodyguard never grew on me. Kevin Costner does a great job in his role, but despite her famous and now immortal song, Whitney Houston absolutely doesn't cut it as an actress. My idea of an unforgettable Hollywood couple looks completely different.

It can't be described very well, it simply must be felt. Nostalgia? Of course, but my appreciation is not just for that reason. The Bodyguard is a quality film, whether someone likes it or not. It has a decent amount of humour, excellent action, a soulful romance, and a pleasantly family-friendly (definitely not tacky) touch. Mick Jackson directed an incredibly stylish and mature caper that should not be ashamed of its storytelling value. It has power, solid content, and above all, an extremely charming hero. I understand the swooning over Frank Farmer from the female population, as he is absolutely irresistible in this role. And Whitney Houston's acting is not bad either, although she primarily shines with her captivating voice. A romance as it should be.

I used to really like that movie, but now I see that it's just a bit too drawn out and unfortunately also too predictable, whether it's in terms of casting or purely because the script is very straightforward with classic romantic escapades masquerading as a thriller. You can't deny, though, that the main duo is enjoyable to watch, and there's chemistry between them that works. If only the ending had been darker.
