A mediocre noir crime drama, The Poison Rose is full of mystery and intrigue. Based on a novel, the story follows an LA PI who returns to his hometown of Galveston, Texas, for a job looking into a crooked retirement home, but he soon runs into an ex-girlfriend who hires him to clear her daughter of murdering her husband. Starring John Travolta, Morgan Freeman, Brendan Fraser, and Famke Janssen, the film has an impressive cast; though they give rather middling performances. And the low-budget shows in some of the sets and directing choices. Still, there are some interesting plot-twists and suspenseful moments as the investigation unfolds. Yet while it's entertaining, The Poison Rose is a fairly rote thriller.
