Justin Baldoni is staying on the offensive ... attempting to shoot down Blake Lively's allegation he sexually harassed her, by releasing raw video from "It Ends With Us" that reveals some very telling conversation between the costars.

Baldoni's team dropped nearly 10 minutes of unedited footage -- including one scene where Justin and Blake are slow dancing. Blake referenced the scene in her lawsuit against Justin, and accused him of getting creepy with comments about the fragrance she was wearing.

In the video, which has both actors mic'd up, you don't see Justin making any offensive comments or actions toward Blake. We're told his team believes this completely refutes Blake's sexual harassment claim.

Heather McDonald isn't feeling sorry for either Justin Baldoni or Blake Lively amid their legal war ... blasting the two actors for duking it out in their respective lawsuits.

We caught up with the comedian outside Craig's in West Hollywood on Monday, where she gave her candid opinion on the Hollywood drama. While Heather noted the situation has made for good content for her "Juicy Scoop" podcast, she told us both Justin and Blake are clearly in the wrong.

Watch the video ... she blasted Justin as "kind of a weirdo," and said she totally believed the actor was "creepy and inappropriate" on set ... which Blake claimed in her lawsuit against her "It Ends With Us" costar and director.

Justin Baldoni certainly doesn't look like a guy in the middle of a nasty legal battle with his "It Ends With Us" costar Blake Lively -- even though both have been at each other's throats.

Check out new video/photos, obtained by TMZ ... Justin -- who also directed the controversial film -- was photographed Saturday splashing around in the waters on the sandy beaches of Maui, Hawaii.

Justin was also filmed with his shirt off -- putting his ripped abs on full display while flashing a big smile. Our sources say his kids and friends were having some fun in the sun, too.

The outing marks a strong contrast for BA who initially fled his mansion ... then had to deal with one security issue after another just outside his front door in the wake of the massive, deadly Palisades fire.

"This is an age-old story: A woman speaks up with concrete evidence of sexual harassment and retaliation and the abuser attempts to turn the tables on the victim. This is what experts call DARVO. Deny. Attack. Reverse Victim Offender."

Lively's team says Justin and his production company are pulling out all the stops to try and "overwhelm the public’s ability to understand that what they are doing is retaliation against sexual harassment allegations."
