Hidden inside a smartphone, the bustling city of Textopolis is home to all emojis. Each emoji has only one facial expression, except for Gene, an exuberant emoji with multiple expressions. Determined to become "normal" like the other emojis, Gene enlists the help of his best friend Hi-5 and a notorious code breaker called Jailbreak. During their travels through the other apps, the three emojis discover a great danger that could threaten their phone's very existence.

Probably the most boring movie of the decade. Just mid mid mid and more mid. Just so fing boring. The pacing is worse Than your average football defender. The plot is as shallow as beaches. Characters are painfully boring and snooze worthy. And just a massive bore to watch this QOUTE ON QOUTE movie. The bruh of all time

One wishes that this movie could be erased from existence - but for now, let's hope that the burning wreckage acts as a warning to never, ever do this again.

If I'm not dreaming, I've just seen one of the boldest mainstream American movies in ages.

Occasionally it's as if The Lego Movie is reaching out a long, friendly arm to Inside Out and falling into the chasm between. But the film is inventive too.

What's On TV

It's hard to decide what is most annoying about this cinematic botch: the ugly animation, the contrived story or the blatant product placement, or the fact that the filmmakers spoil almost every gag by underlining it twice.

Rated: 1/5

Substream Magazine

It's a horrifying scene set atop a pile of trash, but the pure absurdity of its existence is enough to make one laugh in shock and disbelief.

No one beyond the smallest of children should be entertained by this shameless money grab that fails in virtually every way.
