I go into every movie I watch hoping it's awesome. Why would I want to spend over ninety minutes of my life watching something that's bad when I can spend that time watching something that's enjoyable and stimulating? Sure, many times I end up watching a movie that strikes me as mediocre, lackluster or even outright bad but it's always good to give every single movie you see a fair shake and hope for the best. That's what I did for The Emoji Movie, a feature film that's received plenty of derision leading up to its release, and while the trailers looked, well, awful to me, I still went in here hoping for the best.
I came out very tired and very aghast at what I just witnessed.
