Movie Info

The girlfriend of a ruthless drug dealer attempts to strike out on her own, only to find that it isn't easy to shake the grip of the most dangerous man in the city. Kat (Milla Jovovich) is a beautiful bad girl whose hunger for danger has led her down a dark path in life. Despite having her every move dictated by her dope-slinging boyfriend, Big Al (Angus MacFadyen), Kat longs take her fate in her own hands. Now, as Kat begins to make her own deals on the street, Big Al's right-hand man (Stephen Dorff) professes that his feelings for the increasingly independent moll run much deeper than she ever suspected. As tensions flair and jealousy seethes, Kat and her newfound sidekick make a plan to take down Big Al -- and do whatever it takes to claim his valuable territory.

Sometimes stupid, sometimes absurd, and many times just over the top, ".45" will test your patience and grind your nerves...

Rarely is something this elaborate, this mundane. Some laughs are present, and the story is just engaging enough to keep you the bare-minimum of invested, but mostly it seems like its just a platform for Milla Jovovich's nudity.

Well, that was a waste of 101 minutes. I never would have known that .45 existed, if not for the presence of Milla Jovovich. That ignorance of this movie, probably would have been to my overall advantage. It's safe to say that I am not a fan. .45 is basically an R-rated Lifetime Movie of the Week. The story is a messy mix of domestic violence, crime, revenge, double-crosses, and general pointlessness. I was massively disinterested within the first ten minutes, but I forced myself to watch all of it, because of my misguided aversion to not finishing a movie (unless I absolutely must, ex. Darkness). No one came out of this one looking good, even the pretty Ms. Jovovich. I'm struggling to think of a single redeeming quality...nope. I'm drawing a blank. Even if you're a die-hard fan of Milla, I still could not recommend this. She does have talent, but none of it is on display, here. It's been a few months since I've seen a movie that I enjoyed this little.

Nobody does revenge like a woman.

Not that great.... there were some truly uncomfortable moments, and it was predictable. I found Angus Macfadyen to be annoying and over the top
