Wissenswertes
The film was shot and released as 'Superwoman' but when Warner Bros. / DC Comics got wind of this, they took the producers to court. There were enough similarities to impose changes on the producers. They had to go back and delete all references to the character's name from the soundtrack, scratch out the "S" logo on her costume and re-title the film. The producers considered 'Ultrawoman' before settling on 'Ms. Magnificent.' DC also wanted the judge to order them to delete the flying sequences. He concluded that flying did not infringe on DC's characters since many other superheroes could also fly. All film prints of the original version and all copies of the original movie poster were recalled (and presumably destroyed) although a few examples of the poster still exist. Posters with the new title and new film prints were distributed and remain the only version in distribution. In recent years it has become known that the original 'Superwoman' version of the film, in addition to theatrical exhibition, also had a very limited VHS / Beta distribution in the early days of home video. A few bootlegs of these tapes have turned up from time to time in collector's circles.

Poorly Made But Fairly Entertaining

Ms. Magnificent (1979)

** 1/2 (out of 4)

Originally this film was meant to be a porn spoof of SUPERMAN and it features Desiree Cousteau playing a reporter by day but a superhero by night who uses her sexual knowledge to set things right. Cousteau was put in a red cape but it didn't take long for Marvel to sue so the producers of this film changed the title, silenced the soundtrack whenever "Superwoman" was said and they blurred out the "S" on the costume.

For the most part this here was a poorly made but mildly entertaining porn film that has a few campy moments but, to be honest, if it wasn't for the lawsuit then it's doubtfilm the film would have been remembered today. For the most part the film plays it rather simple with the story as Superwoman must try and get her lover back from the villain of the film (played by Jesie St. James).

If you're expecting any ground-breaking effects or anything like that then you're obviously in the wrong movie. The opening scenes in space are horrendously embarrassing as is pretty much everything dealing with any sort of effect. Even worse are the performances by most of the cast but this does add some humor into the mix. The sex scenes are at least entertaining and for the most part they were good enough to please the porn crowd.

It seems not too many people were happy with Cousteau here and I can understand why. She's pretty bland in the role and she certainly doesn't bring any energy to the part. I loved her so much in PRETTY PEACHES and other films that this one here doesn't come off nearly as great. With that said, she's still quite beautiful so watching her was no problem.
