Mildly entertaining, but ultimately downright stupid and not scary in the least. Another Stephen King story that just doesn't translate well to the big screen.

I had high hopes for this movie but I very disappointed. It was tedious instead of scary. I fast forwarded thru half of it.

Some stories should never be adapted and In The Tall Grass was one of them. The cast is ok but the plot is just bad. Time travel is just a bad idea 90% of the time and very hard to pull off.

Grass is evil.
Black rocks are evil.
Church buildings are evil.
Christian white men are evil.
Stephen King's world view summed up. Hopeless film.

While at first I thought it will be nice idea for a scary movie with some weird twists and mindf*** type movie, it was just a bit too boring and dumb while watching and I didnt really get it's idea I guess.

This is horrible the scariest part of all is the money wasted in making this. And for the people who say the idea is original it is not. The movie is based on one called triangle so you might as well watch the that just avoid this.

The script is garbage. Full of **** and cliche pointless dialogues and the story itself is garbage.

This is one of those movies that tries to garner attention on nothing more than shock value. There is not one saving grace about this movie, and it essentially acts as porn for basement dwelling edgelords.

This movie was terrible. It was illogical and way too long. There were too many layers added on to the original plot of the people being stuck in the grass, and it became confusing, and outright ridiculous and confusing. The plot line of theThis movie was terrible. It was illogical and way too long. There were too many layers added on to the original plot of the people being stuck in the grass, and it became confusing, and outright ridiculous and confusing. The plot line of the time loop, for example, made no sense and was very poorly, if at all, explained as the movie went on. Who are the random grass people that we see twice in the movie and are never explained? What does the rock do? This movie is beyond vague for ominous purposes: it is badly thought out, and perhaps the storyline was poorly written. This movie may have been good as a 12 minute short film, and no longer. The viewer gets tired of seeing grass shot in only so many different ways, for nearly two straight hours. In addition, the gore feels out-of-place and over-the-top. I highly recommend staying away from this one; I feel like I just wasted two hours of my life on a poorly executed, drawn-out, badly-acted, low-budget piece of trash.… Expand

Boring and messy. "In the Tall Grass" certainly has an interesting concept, but it's drowning in a mess of cliches, idiotic characters, and bad CGI.

"In the Tall Grass" certainly has an interesting concept, but it's drowning in a mess of cliches, idiotic characters, and bad CGI. Upon finishing this film I was shocked to discover that it's only 90 minutes, because it felt as though it was over 2 hours. Many of the characters in this film make rash, moronic decisions that lead to convoluted conflicts. All the while the movie can't even be bothered to be well shot or even particularly scary. A waste of time to be certain. -
