TALL GIRL is Stupid and Pointless | Cynical Reviews

TALL GIRL (2019), the latest teen romcom from Netflix, is, in my opinion, the worst one they’ve released so far. It reminded me of Sierra Burgess is a loser, but somehow worse. Boring, confused, pointless, and morally contradictory, it deserves everything I’m about to inflict on it for twenty minutes, and more.

You miss out on many sports opportunities or modelling, etc. (Basketball and stuff) Since your smaller,your alcohol tolerance is shit, your stamina is shit and everything for you is shit.

[@Redmanticore]

and the series made the only short guy real creepy. and the only tall guy handsome and to be desired and mentally not creepy. which is ironic considering the serie´s "supposed" body positive message. it would be like there would be a thing about domestic violence, but in the show there would be a scene where the woman hits the man, and the show would excuse it, or even encourage it. theres a lot of faux feminist media which depicts following patriarchal norms as fine, if its the woman doing it, even encouraging it as "you go girl" mentality. that the only way for women to empower themselves is turning into a that thing they hated in the first place. hate violence? do violence. hate discrimination? do discrimination. that would make the general populace confused about what is feminism and do it erroneously, therefore losing legitimacy, maybe on purpose? /conspiracy theory

Demiurge13 yeah, I’m 6’5”, a male yes, but I got onto my school’s varsity Ice Hockey team. I was the biggest guy on the team, but that just meant I took up more of the net. Sure she’s in New Orleans, not Wisconsin, but, there’s still soccer, or like you said, basketball. I’m a total nerd, but I realized I wasn’t bad as a goalie and I enjoyed being a last line of defense, with a .923 save percent and 2.78 Goals Against, and my sheer size made up for my problems with technique. This is totally her fault, I don’t think any coach would push away her potential capabilities due to physical size, but no, she can’t play the victim here.

[@VanAnhNguyen-us2wn]

let me just rewrite the script: Jodi's tall and she feels insecure by herself and doesn't feel confident at all because people at her school make joke(s) that they think it's fun (but they don't mean to make her sad) about her height. Because of her being tall, the P.E teacher offers her to join the basketball team (or volleyball or any sport that needs tall persons) and she agrees because her family and friends SUPPORT her and she somehow wants to try something new. At first, she doesn't know how to use her height as a advantage and wants to quit, then once again her family and friends encourage Jodi and she tries really hard and it pays off. She's now good at basketball and proud of being tall and feels confident. There's a basketball competition and her team is performing really good teamwork to go to the final and her team wins. Now she is at the school and gives a remarkable speech about the winning and her adventure of being tall with a good message. Now she's special, haves connect with her family, friends and no romance bullshit. END

[@MrEndstage]

Pretty good idea but I feel it might mean more if she didn't like basketball and only did I because other thought it was good idea like how you said about the jokes. But at the end she stands up for herself and doesn't let that insecurity control her and learns to stands up for herself.

[@oddcrafter1270]

Alternatively, she's upset by her height because her childhood dream was to be a jockey, and she ended up being way too tall (and thus, too heavy) for a horse to carry.

[@ajthewildwolf]

Also she gets a scholarship to the college of her choice for women's basketball

[@thesapphireone]

And if there needs to be a romance, have Stig get together with Jodie, give him an actual personality, flaws, and charisma, maybe have them bond over him struggling to adjust to American school customs, and they both motivate the other to be more confident in themselves. And actually have Milk Boy get called out for his creepy, stalker-like, Dogged Nice Guy bullshit, realise the error of his ways, and encourage Jodie to stay with Stig, rather than the tired old “Don’t date the popular guy, get with your friend, even though you had no romantic feelings towards them until the last third!” cliche.

This movie becomes interesting if you view it from the perspective that the main character is a really toxic person who others avoid for being toxic, but can't accept that reality and instead blames her shortcomings on things outside her control. With the movie being how she incorrectly remembers the events happening, rather than them actually happening. It makes more sense, and causes you to ask "now what actually happened here?" for every scene that happens. Her random bit of being smart in the library? That's what she came up to say in the shower long after that scene actually happened. The strange dialogue? That's her memory removing all nuances of the situation so she can be the victim. The tall exchange student being bland as bread? That's because she only saw his height and didn't pay any attention to his personality, so she doesn't remember it.

[@kylethefraggle30]

To have an unreliable narrator, the movie (or book, video game, etc) has to show you that the character is a unreliable narrator. You can make any movie interesting by viewing it through the lens if an unreliable narrator. But doing so kinda devalues the original message of the writer.

[@chrisrudolf9839]

@@grcmg3122 While the bullying is another level of it, she also specifically bitches about guys not wanting to date her because she is tall, so she is an awful hypocrite when she rejects him because of his hight. Not that there wouldn't have been plenty of GOOD reasons to reject that creep, but she rejects him because he is so much shorter than her. Actually I think this is more common than the other way round, most short guys wouldn't care whether they would look short beside their partner if they only knew that she didn't care either. It's the girls who reject guys who are shorter than them because they (conciously or subconciously) are looking for a big guy with a shoulder to lean on, not the guys rejecting the taller girls.

[@geckyoskitz]

​@@notaperson8632ok, well those are strangers that you see once and never again. In a school, people start to know each other, especially the others in their grade, through proxy and friendship, passing and classes, etc.. When she shows absolutely nothing about herself other than that she's tall, that is all that people know. If she joined clubs, sports, or played the piano like she claims she's really good at in the movie, people could know her for that as well, or if she was funny, nice, mean, something else, good or bad. If all she is known for after years (or if she's meant to be a freshman, months) is her height, then she is not putting herself out there or talking to anyone. Of course people are going to see you, her, or any other tall person as tall, but if you get to know someone after seeing just how they look, eventually their looks become of little to no importance, and rather the character of the person. The same thing goes for short people, and people of different races, cultures, people with accents, lisps, stutters, people who work out all the time, people who are fat or skinny, etc.. HUGE DIFFERENCE.

As a tall girl myself, I can say for a fact that I was never made fun of for my height. Ever. Nah. Instead, I was made fun of for my autism, my dead mother, and for being ugly. *But hey at least I don't wear men's size 13 Nike's! :D*

[@someothername7886]

Being a tall girl in high school is only a “problem” when you’re lanky, homely looking, and socially awkward/insecure. When you look like you could become a model after graduating, then there realistically should be no problem... This actress looks like she could be a model, so the bullying in this movie makes little sense unless it’s solely done by bitchy insecure girls. And that ending is total bs.

[@yodickninja]

Actually yeah she is a model

[@prinstyrio0]

The height bullying was just an easy excuse but not the cause. I remember seeing people, class mates even, with her attitude and personality, and they get bullied/made fun off simply cause they're not a pleasant person to be around and keep focusing on themselves, not seeing that the other "popular" people also got problems but they don't make it other people's issues. There's a lot more to situations that can be broken down, but the height in a real scenario would've never been why they bully her for it, but because she seems to think herself a victim in every situation and everyone out to get her, when that's rather paranoid selfish thoughts that turns you into an annoying person others make a parody of. Targeting something physical is just quick and easy ammunition, not that people should do it, but that more often than not it's who you are rather than what you are people bully you for and the latter is easier to make fun of someone.

[@catpurcell8818]

In real life, being tall isn't even seen as a flaw.. Maybe people will be like "Wow you're tall!!" But I've never heard any normal person seeing it as a bad thing.

I went to high school with a girl who was 6'4" "and a half" and she LOVED her height. We had televisions mounted from the ceiling to watch morning announcements, and Becky was the only one who could turn them on without a step ladder so every morning Becky would walk to the front like "I've got this guys. I'm 6'4" AND A half". Nobody bullied her. Becky was awesome. Did a man write this film? I'm googling this..... Of course a man wrote this because they totally understand the mentality of teenage girls 🙄
