The only good review is your own, but it's hard to deny the wave of condemnation for this. I was turned off from the start because the concept seemed dumb to me, plus the trailers all stunk something awful.

to be fair the lego movie could have gone through the same failure with its concept, but it was so well done that there are kids and adults who love that movie. the emoji movie on the other hand uses obvious jokes and has no memorable characters to keep the film afloat.

The Emoji Movie is now officially in contention for worst reviewed movie of the year. Given that it's also not faring too well at the box office, this will likely be Sony Animation's first loss on a picture.

Sony was pretty stupid to think this would succeed. Did they not bother to do any marketing research or determine if this was what people wanted?

The head of Sony Animation must have a paper bag over his head for allowing this to be greenlit.

The thing is, as bad of a concept it is for a movie, that doesn't mean it still couldn't of been good. Plenty of crappy premised films can actually turn out to be well made. Just look at a film like Robocop as an example. Just the name alone sounds like the name of some cheesy and low-budget kids cartoon. However, the film actually turned out to be a dark satire of the 1980's and who's main character is meant to be an allegory for Jesus Christ.

Well, at least I didn't see an ad saying this is the family movie of the summer. At least they're honest.

maybe if it was directed by brad bird it would have fared better. he directed a pixar movie about a rat who takes pride in cooking food and blending flavors, how could that not fail?
