There are a few things from the 90s that I am quite fond of.
One is Kevin Coster’s action movies. The other, are stupid movies about obscure professions done well.
The Bodyguard takes both of these things and mashes them together into a action/thriller/love story hybrid.
It also came out at the peak of Whitney Houston’s fame - before she started smoking the crack pipe with one Bobby Brown.
But before all that, Whitney was just a 90s balladeer, with sweet angelic vocals that could rip the dick off choruses, and this was her by far her best song. It gets no better than a lingering melody, the smash of a kick-drum, a pause, and then an explosion of Ms. Houston’s “And, IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!”
