Blog:The Emoji Movie page but with as many emojis as possible

The Emoji 🎥 (originally titled Emojimovie: 🗯️ Yourself) is a 3️⃣D 💻️-animated 🧪 fiction comedy 🎞️ that is directed by Tony Leondis, ➕ 🖋️ by Leondis, Eric Siegel ➕ Mike ⚪️ based on the text 😀 💡 as Emoji. It includes the voices of T.J. Miller, Ilana Glazer, James Corden, Patrick Stewart, Steven Wright, ➕ Rob Riggle. Produced by Sony 🖼️ Animation, the 🎞️ was released on July 2️⃣8️⃣, 2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣7️⃣, by Columbia 🖼️.

Plot
The plot focuses on 🧬, an exuberant emoji who has more than 1️⃣ 💦😮 🗯️, which is insanely rare in the emoji 🌐. 🧬 is supposed to be a “😐️” emoji, but is unsure of what to do with 👤👨⬅️ various other 🗯️. 🧬 then enlists the help of 👤👨⬅️ best buddy 👋-5️⃣, ➕ the former 👸 turned code breaker emoji, Jailbreak. They 🚕➡️ through various apps on the ☎️ they inhabit, such as 🍬 🥰 ➕ Just 🕺. But when a ⚡️ 🔨➡️ the ☎️ caused by the 🦹 emoji 😀 (a 😄 😀 emoji, if that isn’t obvious enough), it is 🆙 to the unlikely trio to save their 🌐 before it is permanently erased.

❓️ It Sucks

 * 1) The 💡 of having a 🎥 based on emojis is an incredibly lazy concept.
 * 2) *In addition, this concept could have ⚙️ out if released earlier when emojis were still relevant, but by 2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣7️⃣, no 1️⃣ was using ➡️👥
 * 3) The sole purpose of the 🎥 is to advertise smartphones ➕ ☎️ apps, 🛠️ obvious by the blalant ➕ shameless product placement for ☎️ apps, such as the inclusions of 🎼🎧️ service "Spotify" ➕ streaming service "Crackle" as well as "Facebook", "Twitter", "🍬 🥰", "YouTube" ➕ "Just 🕺 Now" in the 🎞️. It's also a ❗️ shameless 💷-grab trying to leech off of the smartphone pop 🧫 (except the writers 💡 nothing about smartphone pop 🧫).
 * 4) ❗️ poorly 🖋️ ➕ ❗️ unfunny 😜, that often take ♾️ to finish.
 * 5) The 😐️ emojis 🔉 like they ❌️ 🙏 this 🎞️ to exist either.
 * 6) Patrick Stewart voices the 💩 emoji. Apparently Stewart himself 💬 that 👤👨⬅️ casting was meant to be a 😜.
 * 7) ❗️ predictable ➕ a formulaic plot that is based on over-⌛️ 💡, already 👀 many ⏱️ in other animated movies, about a misunderstood character in 🔍️ for a way to 🙏 others at 🥇, but eventually accepts himself/herself for who 👤👨/👤👩 is. Other examples are: a ❗️ cliched ➕ never explained plot twist consisting on 🧬 dad having the same problem as 👤👨⬅️ son that 💆‍♀️ ❗️ 😰 ➕ quickly 🛠️ in order to 🛠️ audiences understand ❓️ 🧬 has the problem; the fact that Jailbreak formerly was a 👸 ➕ an "every character 💃" 🔚.
 * 8) Jailbreak is a rip-off of Wyldstyle from The Lego 🎥, 🧑 ➕ design-🦉. 👤👩's also a rip-off of Olivia “Sombra” Colomar from Overwatch because 👤👩 has a 💀 similar to Sombra's Calavera symbol on 👤👩⬅️ beanie, both characters have 💜 🦳 ➕ are notorious hackers, which 🛠️ Jailbreak a ⏩️ rip-off.
 * 9) 😀 is a ❗️ predictable, generic ➕ a lame 🦹, ➕ 👤👩⬅️ design has an uncanny valley 💆‍♀️ to it, mainly because 👤👩 always 😄 no matter what.
 * 10) ❗️ awful innuendos, such as the 🐘 ➕ 💨 away emoji scene (🛠️ to represent that the 🐘 is farting).
 * 11) The 🎞️ has flat characterization. All the characters have this flaw, especially 🧬 parents who mistreat him for ❌ being a 😐️ emoji.
 * 12) Inappropriate moments for a 🎥 for kids: there are a 👫 scenes in which a character nearly utters the word "💩".
 * 13) Aggressively childish 🖋️.
 * 14) False advertising: despite the heavy marketing of the aforementioned 💩 Emoji on posters ➕ in the trailers, this character, voiced by Patrick Stewart, only gets a few lines ➕ doesn't even have an important role in the 🎥 whatsoever.
 * 15) The 🎥 forgets completely about 👋-5️⃣'s subplot ➕ focuses only on 🧬.
 * 16) Nonsensical characterization: every single character seems to 🗯️ other emotions than the 1️⃣ that they have to do when they are used on the ☎️, almost 🛠️ the entire plot pointless.
 * 17) The humans' story was barely even touched upon throughout the whole 🎥, essentially wasting a sub-plot that only ⤵️ off as a redundant afterthought.
 * 18) The 🎥 portrays the teens as ☎️ addicts that ❌️ communicate with each other except by text messages, clearly depicting the problem of teenagers spending all day long glued to their ☎️, but instead of criticizing this problem it encourages it.
 * 🧬, the main protagonist is incredibly unlikable.
 * 1) The writers did a ❗️ awful job representing the characters' roles in the 🎥. 😀 is depicted as the 🦹 even though all 👤👩 🙏 to do was to protect the Emojis 🌐 while 🧬, despite being the protagonist, was the 1️⃣ really responsible for all the troubles that happened in the 🎥, 👤👨 even caused the 💀 of many characters such as the trolls ➕ the Just 🕺 👧 ➕ almost caused the entire ☎️ to almost have its data deleted. Basically, the 🎥 tries to force viewers to like the protagonist ➕ to despise the 🦹 without 🎁➡️ the usual proper characterization to ➡️👥 as a reason to do this.
 * 2) The 🎥 clearly 💡 nothing about ☎️ (➕ this ⤵️ from a 🎙️ whose owner is better 💡 for their technology). For example: the climax where the ☎️ is getting deleted, ➕ a lot of apps get deleted, but when Alex unplugs the ☎️, all the apps get restored.
 * 3) Many plotholes; how 🥫 ➡️👤 get to the ☎️ from Dropbox via Twitter?

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Like other Sony 🖼️ Animation 🎞️, the animation is admittedly nice to 👀 at.
 * 2) Passable character designs for most of the characters.
 * 3) ❗️ 👍️ soundtrack for the 🎞️, as well as the song "👍️ Vibrations", which was 🎭️ by Ricky Reed for this 🎥.
 * 4) A few 👍️ 😜 that actually ⚙️:
 * 5) The 🧓-🏫 emoticons such as ":)" are elders.
 * 6) The scene where the Just 🕺 👧 is 💃 in the 🗑️, wondering ❓️ 👤👩 keeps 💃 while 😢.
 * 7) There is a ❗️ funny moment with the Columbia 🖼️ logo with an Emoji.
 * 8)  In relation to WIS#️⃣8️⃣, 😀, 👤👩 is the best part of the entire 🎥. Even if ➡️👤 hated 👤👩⬅️ for being the 🦹, 👤👩⬅️ intentions ➕ motivations are understandable ➕ were defined better than the 1️⃣ from the protagonists, 🛠️ 👤👩⬅️ a ❗️ well defined character overall ➕ a sympathetic 🦹 in particular. Everything 👤👩 did was to 🛑 🧬 from destroying the Emojis 🌐, 👤👩 🙏 to delete him in order to protect the ☎️ ➕ it's data from getting deleted.
 * 9) Decent voice 🎭️, despite talents being wasted.
