      38% 13 Reviews Tomatometer 22% 250+ Ratings Audience Score Jodi (Ava Michelle) has always been the tallest girl in school -- and she's always been uncomfortable with it. After slouching her way through life for 16 years and being made fun of by classmates, Jodi meets Stig (Luke Eisner), a seemingly perfect Swedish foreign exchange student who's even taller than she is. Jodi's new crush turns her world upside down and throws her into a surprising love triangle, but with the help of her two best friends (Griffin Gluck, Anjelika Washington) as well as her beauty queen sister Harper (Sabrina Carpenter), Jodi comes to realize that she's far more than her insecurities about her appearance have led her to believe. TALL GIRL, director Nzingha Stewart's first feature film, is a heartfelt and hilarious coming-of-age story about finding the confidence to stop slouching and stand tall. Read More Read Less

      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      While charming at times, Tall Girl is mostly an uninspired teen comedy that fails to bring anything new to the genre.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/10/23 Full Review Aime B Completely unrealistic, short people are the real victims of bullying. Everyone knows that. The main character is completely ungrateful and needs to be better. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/23 Full Review Ashley G This movie is hilariously bad. The only aspect I enjoyed unironically was the absolute insanity of Sabrina Carpenter's character and the fun she was clearly having while acting her out. Watch this movie drunk with friends for a good laugh. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Anne Cohen Refinery29 On the whole, it's a charming movie about the mental toll of insecurity that also has major blind spots. Sep 13, 2019 Full Review Elisabeth Vincentelli New York Times America's mood has changed, and many viewers might not feel much empathy for the small-minded grievances of wealthy teens who drive to school in S.U.V.s. Sep 13, 2019 Full Review Caroline Siede AV Club From a one-note mean girl stereotype to a complete disinterest in how social media shapes the lives of teens, Sam Wolfson's lackluster script fails to bring anything new or timely to the teen rom-com table. Rated: C+ Sep 13, 2019 Full Review Lonita Cook KCTV5 News at 9 A really strong teen movie. Sep 20, 2021 Full Review Deirdre Molumby entertainment.ie Tall Girl is not a movie with depth, though it is more charming than you'd expect. It's just such a shame about that ending. Oct 15, 2019 Full Review Barbara Shulgasser Common Sense Media Coming-of-age comedy about feeling different; mild cursing. Rated: 3/5 Sep 26, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
