8) The Emoji Movie (2017)
This animated film about the secret life of emojis inside a smartphone is somehow centred on Gene, whose personality is different and multi-emotional, as the movie tries to pose the message of individuality and acceptance.
Unfortunately, the movie lacks originality in terms of creativity, becomes too dependent on product placements, and consists of unimaginative humour. Whatever is promised for the fairy-tale romantic comedy does not get through to the audience's heart.
Critics lambasted it as a cash-grab rather than a true story, and so, at the end of the day, it remains as the forgettable, disappointing family film that fails to resonate with anyone.
