Review of The Emoji Movie (2017) by Keatonmerrell — 02 Aug 2017

How do I accurately detail the absolute hells cape that is The Emoji Movie. The entire time I was watching it I was feeling real life pain due to some of the most cringey, depressing, and unironic writing I have ever seen in a blockbuster film.

The half-baked social commentary was both unintelligent and by-the-numbers when it came to feminism, being who you are, and honesty in relationships; but the downright glaringly awkward issue of the role of technology (or even product placement) in our lives was lost on the makers of this fine movie.
