	Author	Review
United States	Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"Namely because while [Natali] nails the menacing tone, and it is fascinating to watch, the characters are massively underdeveloped. (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"Natali proves unable to make the simultaneously simplistic and convoluted plot developments remotely coherent"	NEG
United States	Haleigh Foutch Collider	"[It] doesn’t always work, but when it does, it’s compelling and gorgeous, and yet another film on the Netflix roster I wish more people had an opportunity to see in theaters."	POS
United States	Chris Evangelista SlashFilm	"There are moments of extreme brutality within the frames of this film (...) But 'In the Tall Grass' still comes up short."	NEU
United States	Kristy Puchko The Playlist	"[It] proves a solidly spooky film, seeded with some tantalizing moments of terror. But it never grows to outright terrifying."	POS
Canada	Chris Agar Screen Rant	"'In the Tall Grass' has suitably creepy moments peppered throughout, but its overall narrative lacks cohesion and can be confusing at times.	NEU
United States	Katie Rife AV Club	"A mixed bag, well shot and well acted enough to mostly keep the viewer's attention, but meandering enough to frustrate at the same time."	NEU
