Some examples. Here's Jared Kusner's short coat. Bad, sad, and not good
Here's a more traditional length, which I think guys sometimes mistake for being fusty and old, but it looks more flattering and traditionally masculine. Note these people are of dramatically different heights, but the proportions mostly stay the same.
That said, the length of the coat has to work in concert with the other proportions of the jacket (say the style). But this is also to say that very slim jackets, which are designed to be short, look bad for reasons other their length
