When using SSRS tables you can often find the row height becomes inconsistent for certain fields.
Cells of SSRS tables are actually just text boxes which are set by default to wrap text.
Once you have identified which data is causing the text to wrap you can change a setting to prevent this.
In Design view, select the cell that is causing the text to wrap, right-click on it and choose Text Box Properties...
Under General settings you will find the Allow height to increase option, uncheck the box to turn it off.
Now the row heights are consistent but some of the titles have been truncated.
You now need to change the width of the column to accommodate your data.
Now you can see the full title of each film.
Its worth noting that this owl has never found an automatic way to resize a SSRS table column to autofit the data as can be done in Excel columns.
