** The entirety of Gene's {{opening monologue}}, due to trying [[MeaninglessMeaningfulWords (and failing)]] to make ''smartphones of all things'', simple, accessible everyday conveniences, feel magical, and also for blatantly ripping off ''WesternAnimation/InsideOut'''s opening monologue: "The world we live in, it's so wondrous, mysterious, even magical. No, n-n-not that world...I meant this one: the smartphone. Each system and programmed app is its own little planet of perfect technology. All providing services so necessary, so crucial, so unbelievably profound.". This ends with the absolutely ridiculous [[BlatantLies "Emojis are the most important tool of communication"]]. Much like the film's tagline, it neatly (and unintentionally) lets the audience know [[TotallyRadical what they're in for]] with the film.

** The reveal that Jailbreak's entire motivation is [[spoiler:about her status as a princess emoji, and that apparently female emojis were only ever allowed to be princesses or brides.]] It's supposed to be a touching revelation... that's so absurd it's laughable. Made worse if viewers apply the slightest amount of thought to the situation and remember that the leader of the emojis, Smiler, is female.

Even if viewers didn’t do so, they’d realize this when the movie cuts back to Textopolis.

** Creator/AnnaFaris' cutesy voice is [[VocalDissonance the last thing you'd at least try to expect]] to accompany with the [[RealWomenDontWearDresses tough-girl personality]] Jailbreak is supposed to have, but it's too hard to take her seriously with that voice.

** Creator/AnnaFaris' high-pitched voice is [[VocalDissonance the last thing you'd expect]] to associate with the [[RealWomenDontWearDresses tough-girl archetype]] that Jailbreak is meant to be, and sounds hilariously jarring at times.

** The film's seeming insistence on never giving Alex a personality ''at all'', as an extension of this. We don't even see him send Addie an actual text with words - when Hi-5 digs it up, it's ''the lyrics to [[Music/{{Rihanna}} "Diamonds"]]''.
