Rated 4 out of 5 This DVD release is edited. This version has been edited. The film was released in 1981 with a MPAA rating of X. Current distributors of this film have released the R version. Two minutes of the film are cut (rape scenes). The original can be found on VHS only by Xenon Entertainment. They are out of print but copies can be found ...The lead character (Zoe Lund) in this film also wrote the screenplay for "Bad Leutinant" with Harvey Keitel and she is in a scene in that movie also. Zoe Lund died in 1997 at 37 years old and was a herion junkie. Rated 2 out of 5 Demented story and lousy acting.... I viewed this movie only out of curiosity and couldn’’t believe I paid money for it! While "Ms. 45" may have something of a cult following, and Zoe Tamerlis is slightly intriguing in the lead, there are some handicaps the film just can’’t get past. Namely - a very implausible story line and some dreadful acting! Tamerlis is attacked in broad daylight twice - on the street and in her apartment. And it appears as if she and her co-workers are verbally assaulted by every sleazy male in Manhattan! It got a bit ridiculous after a while and lost all credibility for me. None of the other players in the film can read a single line to sound convincing. At one point, I wondered if "Ms. 45" was supposed to be a black comedy, but it didn’’t work whatever the intention was! Not really sure what to make of this very bizarre flick, but I can’’t recommend it very highly.
