The Emoji Movie: 6% on RT

[Lion Heart 15,041]

 

(CNN) Cue the crying emoji.

For a minute, it looked like "The Emoji Movie" would be the latest to join the dreaded Rotten Tomatoes 0% fresh club.

But as of Friday, one critic gave the animated children's film, which follows the lives of the bright emoticons living in smartphones, a warm review. Sort of.

"Positive messages, but colorful adventure is only 'meh,'" Betsy Bozdech of Common Sense Media wrote with her tepid tomato, commending the story as kid-friendly but "not particularly original."

The poor reception is not good news for the $50 million movie and its big-name cast, including James Corden, Anna Faris, T.J. Miller and Maya Rudolph. "The Emoji Movie" debuts head-to-head at the box office this weekend with Charlize Theron's action flick "Atomic Blonde" and faces competition from "Dunkirk" and "Girls Trip."

But [6%] on Rotten Tomatoes is better than 0%.

Who thought a lego movie and an angry birds movie would be a good idea 

And both of those movies turned out good

Jack has been sarcastically hyping the movie for months, I was looking forward to the review and I wasn't disappointed 

I mean, seriously, who's the dumbass who greenlighted this atrocity

Let's hope not, but it is Bradley Cooper directing... Light ur Alejandro candles starting now brothers and sisters.

I don't think it'll be bad, well, at least I hope not

This is Gaga's first huge shot at acting, yeah she's done AHS and stuff, but those are like smaller roles imo, but it's also Coopers' directorial debut so there's a lot of "firsts" for this movie.

I think it'll be a surprisingly good movie, like, I feel (and really hope) that Gaga's acting will blow people away and that it's an objectively good movie.
