YES — Watch it tonight. This is the iconic '90s thriller-romance that basically invented the bodyguard-falls-for-client formula, with Whitney Houston delivering a genuinely charismatic performance and Kevin Costner playing it perfectly earnest. It's got action, chemistry, drama, and that unforgettable soundtrack ('I Will Always Love You'), making it a satisfying watch that holds up as pure entertainment.

Plot

A former Secret Service agent grudgingly takes an assignment to protect a pop idol who's threatened by a crazed fan. At first, the safety-obsessed bodyguard and the self-indulgent diva totally clash. But before long, all that tension sparks fireworks of another sort, and the love-averse tough guy is torn between duty and romance.
