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.

Critics Consensus

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

On the whole, it's a charming movie about the mental toll of insecurity that also has major blind spots.

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.

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+

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.

Coming-of-age comedy about feeling different; mild cursing.

Really disappointed in the less than two dimensional best fiend character of Fareed. Loved the actress and her vibe. She made me want to learn more about the character's backstory and present daylife. To bad the writer & director obviously failed out of film school. Was this some nepobaby's project?

It´s just so funny how everyone in the movie is a literal Midget, Because Jodi ain´t tall at all. I never in my life heard someone saying "How´s the weather up there?" And the fact that Dunkleman is AWFUL doesn´t really help.
