Plot

The story is about Gene, a multi-expression emoji who lives in a digital city inside a smartphone named Textopolis, where all the emojis live peacefully and serve as the centre of the emoji sending system.

One day, Alex, the user, decides to send a message to his crush, which is messed up by Gene.

The film follows the journey of Gene as he accepts himself and finds the solution to the crisis that Textopolis faces.

Star Performance

The film stars T.J. Miller as voice over for Gene, who does a fantastic job of bringing the character to life with his voice.

James Corden for Hi-5 and Anna Faris for Jailbreak just as magical job with their voices as T.J. Miller.

Analysis

The film starts inside a classroom where Alex, the user, receives a text from his crush and contemplates what to respond to her with. The phone then zooms in and showcases the beautiful and full-of-life digital city inside the phone, Textopolis, where all the emojis live.

Alex, on his friend’s advice, decides to send an emoji to his crush. This message is messed up by Gene as he panics when being selected, to which he is called in by Smiler (a smiling emoji), who concludes that he is a malfunction.

Gene then escapes the bot chase and ultimately meets one old emoji who was once popular, Hi-5, as they both seek out to find a hacker to solve the problem they are in.

Towards the end, Alex decides to get his phone factory reset to fix it, but that’d mean distraction from Gene’s world, to which Gene expresses himself as various emojis, and that text is sent to Alex’s crush, which leads to Alex cancelling the reset and Gene saving the day.

Ultimately, Gene accepts himself for who he is and lives his life in Textopolis.
