在这部表情奇幻冒险喜剧/动画/冒险片中,由艾里克·西格尔（Eric Siegel）和安东尼·莱昂迪斯（Anthony Leondis）创作剧本，后者还将导演这部电影。
根据介绍，《Emoji大电影》有些像《头脑特工队》和《无敌破坏王》，讲述的是一群表情包在你的手机里的冒险。这群表情包住在“Emoji山谷”里，他们的世界通过手机桌面与其他App的世界相连。
据悉，索尼已经与很多家知名的App达成协议，将会在电影中用到他们的App，其中包括音乐应用Spotify。
The Emoji Movie unlocks the never-before-seen secret world inside your smartphone. Hidden within the messaging app is Textopolis, a bustling city where all your favorite emojis live, hoping to be selected by the phone's user. In this world, each emoji has only one facial expression - except for Gene, an exuberant emoji who was born without a filter and is bursting with multiple expressions. Determined to become "normal" like the other emojis, Gene enlists the help of his handy best friend Hi-5 and the notorious code breaker emoji Jailbreak. Together, they embark on an epic "app-venture" through the apps on the phone, each its own wild and fun world, to find the Code that will fix Gene. But when a greater danger threatens the phone, the fate of all emojis depends on these three unlikely friends who must save their world before it's deleted forever.
这是要创烂番茄历史新低的节奏啊。【严肃影评】这部电影一上映，所有烂片都要靠边站。这真是悲伤无论朝哪儿流都会成河的一件事儿。写给自己。公认的好不是绝对的好。Emoji的狂欢。『表情奇幻冒险』论广告植入我只扶你！。我都能感觉到创作者在很努力地说服自己这个很好笑。浪费了一个开发性超强的项目。这样的电影堪称“史上最差动画”？！。
