The reviews for The Emoji Movie are in, and they probably make Adam Sandler feel great.
Highlights from critics:
“A soulless endeavor and a painful viewing experience.” — Brian Orndorf, Blu-ray.com
A viewer leaves The Emoji Movie a colder person, not only angry at the film for being unconscionably bad, but resentful of it for making them feel angry. — Charles Bramesco, Guardian
T.J. Miller’s ticket to oblivion. — Roger Moore, Movie Nation
Excuse me while I scan my phone for the vomit emoji. — Mara Reinstein, MaraMovies.com
It is one of the darkest, most dismaying films I have ever seen, much less one ostensibly made for children. — Emily Yoshida, New York Magazine/Vulture
Now I kinda wanna see it.
