Im in disguise.....

Rating: 8/10 (19 June 2011)

A pop singer has been receiving threatening notes, and her manager hires a bodyguard known for his good work.
The bodyguard ruffles the singer's feathers and most of her entourage by tightening security more than they feel is necessary. The bodyguard is haunted by the fact that he was on Reagan's secret service staff but wasn't there to prevent the attack by Hinckley.
Eventually the bodyguard and the singer start an affair, and she begins to believe his precautions are necessary when the stalker strikes close to home.....
remember back in the day when whatever film Costner was in it was Gold? well this was released at the height of his popularity, and Costner has never had a hit this huge since. Modelling himself on Steve McQueen, Costner id everything you would expect him to be.
Brooding at first, but eventually becoming a man with a heart of gold and being friends with everyone. But the real reason to watch this film is Houston, and to be fair on her, she isn't all that bad, but is as what you would expect, all attitude and 'mmmm hmmmm', until you discover that she has a heart of gold too. It's just that the two of them can't swallow their prides to tell each other how they feel, until the very last frame.
And somewhere in the film, there is some plot about someone wanting to kill Houston with sarcasm and threatening letters, and it's not who it would seem.
It's inoffensive stuff, very easy to watch and as equally enjoyable, just don't expect too many people to admit it.
