Because for me it epitomizes the hypocrisy of black women. It was fine to make a love story about a black pop vocalist engaged in a love affair with her white bodyguard(and many black women loved this movie). But had it been the other way around, with say Denzel Washington playing the dual role of bodyguard/lover for a white pop singer like Madonna, black women would have lost their minds.
The truth is that black women have ALWAYS had issues with brothers dating/marrying white women, but when it's the other around, then I suppose it's ok. -

I found this film stiff and stilted. Whatever was supposed to be between Houston and Costner simply did not ring true. There was simply NO chemistry.
The entire premise was rather phony. So were the other actors. This one should never have been released. Yuck! Glad that I rented it instead of paying full price.
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED??!!
