possible minor plot spoiler superstar rachel marron ( whitney houston ) be receive death threat and fear for her life . she hire a high price but excellent bodyguard frank farmer ( kevin costner ) . they hate each other at first but naturally fall in love . utterly predictable and a real mess . there be so many thing wrong with this movie it hard to know where to start . first off costner haircut be terrible . seriously and it so bad you look at it in amazement . i realize he do it because steve mcqueen be originally suppose to be in it but that still a stupid reason . the script be just lousy full of terrible line and the plot really doesn not make a lot of sense . the romantic sequence between costner and houston be so horribly write and act that it almost embarrass . purportedly houston and costner get along during the film but they do not show any spark on the screen . the act doesn not help . costner play the movie with a blank expression on his face throughout ( but that do fit his character ) . houston be a very beautiful woman and a fantastic singer but she can not act . a few time i be actually smirk at her terrible attempt at act . an overblown overdone mess of a movie . very dull too . also if youre see this for the music do not bother . houston sings four song that all become hit ( especially i will always love you ) but you never hear the full version of the song in the movie . you might hear the beginning and middle but never the whole thing . despite all this though audience in 1992 love it . it be a huge hit and be nominate for two academy award ( for the music ) . so and use your own judgment . also debbie reynolds turn in a pointless cameo .
