dave d @RT34924333 03/11/2021 I'm not sure how a documentary that should be fascinating is often borderline unwatchable. There's something really wrong with the narrative. It's all over the spectrum and not nearly as focused as it needs to be.  We have talking heads telling us things we already know.  I had so many questions about this new language, but unfortunately the filmmaker often makes things political and isn't as much concerned about the history.  To say this is all over the place is an understatement.  If you have unanswered questions about emojis, they are likely to stay unanswered.  A colossal failure of a film.  Final Score: 3/10 See more 02/13/2021 Interesting at times and deeply offensive at other times. The movies included a good history of how emoji's evolved and how they are continuing to evolve. However, the movie is often disrespectful to those who created and who are are trying to maintain a user friendly Unicode for the world to use. The movie speaks of cultural awareness and appreciating people of all cultures. However, at the same time they openly call the Unicode consortium a xenophobic slur (They negatively referred to them as "Yankees"). See more Read all reviews
