The recycled dialogue and characters in this movie that haven't been updated to reflect a change in the tides... have absolutely no business being in a movie in the great year of our lord, 2017.

Inept romantic drama Below Her Mouth is awesomely bad.

| Original Score: D- | Nov 2, 2018

Though at times nakedly exploitative, Below Her Mouth is nonetheless a powerful drama about two people falling deeply in love; beautiful erotica doesn't get much better.

What Mullen's film lacks in a strong story, it makes up for in its charged eroticism. Some viewers may feel the need to head for the bathtub Dallas enjoys so blissfully.

Below Her Mouth's more significant claim to relevance is its all-female crew, but while Maya Bankovic's cinematography is typically fine, the production is unfortunately in the service of subpar material.

Cringeworthy dialogue and an over-reliance on closeups make April Mullen's Below Her Mouth an often painful watch.

As badass as Dallas's leather jacket, Below Her Mouth is not subtle. The title means what you think it does. The perspective of only women telling the story narratively and visually creates a powerful class of film and for that alone it's worth the time.

| Original Score: 7/10 | May 18, 2017

It's a fittingly ambiguous title for a directionless film, late night fare that will be enjoyed by just as many horny men as horny teenage lesbians. Think of it as equal opportunity erotica.

| Original Score: C- | May 4, 2017

I wish I felt differently about Below Her Mouth. It pains me to extol so many of its virtues yet in the same breadth state I don't think it's all that worthwhile as cinematic entertainment.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 28, 2017

A deeply silly misfire.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 28, 2017

Lesbian and not-quite-sure-if-she's-a-lesbian have a weekend fling. Sometimes unintentionally hilarious, this is little more than soft-core porn.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Apr 28, 2017

An undeniably steamy effort that delivers plenty of heat in its profusion of sex scenes while falling significantly short in dramatic terms.

| Apr 28, 2017

A simple story told well, this is an affecting piece of cinema that punches well above its weight.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 27, 2017

It's a shame the movie doesn't go beneath all the skin it shows.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 27, 2017

Two women meet by chance and fall for each other in this steamy soft porn that seems to have no use for character development or basic plotting.

| Apr 27, 2017

A sexually frank but narratively flimsy girl-meets-girl romance that never gets under its gorgeous characters' amply exposed skin.

| Apr 27, 2017

Krill and Linder have an understated delivery, common to the mumblecore genre. Although this sometimes works against dramatic momentum, it contrasts nicely with - and ultimately heightens - their intimate moments together.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Apr 27, 2017

While "Below Her Mouth" is no doubt some classy-looking porn, it's a pretty lousy movie, because all that sex leaves precious little time to develop character, plot or thematic depth.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 27, 2017

Below Her Mouth represents raw desire and sexual intimacy as successfully as it can be represented on screen.

| Original Score: B+ | Apr 27, 2017

Linder possesses a compelling, Kurt Cobain-like androgyny, but neither she nor Krill can do much to save the portentous screenplay.
