As slight as movies come, yet the sunny scenery and Moreau's effortless charm help make it warmer and more personable than a lot of assembly-line Hollywood product.

Dallas Morning News

Ms. Moreau is unquestionably the film's star, combining intelligence with sexuality and humor.

Rated: B

Akiva Gottlieb

Village Voice

This inane debut feature is based around neon-suffused stock surfing footage from a Compaq commercial, so it's a notable accomplishment that Off the Lip succeeds at being laughably highfalutin.

One Guy's Opinion

Modestly engaging, but ultimately the fragile little movie wipes out, like a surfer who's misjudged a wave.

Rated: C

The film's biggest flaw is that it never settles on and adheres to the basic rules of any given genre.
