An enjoyable movie, but nothing special. It's clear this was a film to showcase Whitney Houston both as a musician and an actress. The narrative is a romantic fantasy--the beautiful celebrity falls in love with her bodyguard, the only man who truly makes her feel safe. There are some emotional moments (jealousy, hatred, fear, angst, etc.) which I wanted to explore more, but twas not to be. Still, a fun escape.
