Every element of a cell array is allowed to be a different type, include structures, objects, multidimensional arrays, strings -- and other cell arrays. Some of those cannot be displayed as text, and some of them are a nuisance to display as text (e.g., 5 dimensional arrays of structures of multidimensional arrays of numeric values.) It is therefore not generally possible to display the contents of a cell array in a msgbox.
Displaying the contents might be practical if the form of the contents is known and fixed.
If the contents are strings you might wish to look at strjoin()

x =[149.3; 85.13323; 2; 42.5; sqrt(exp(1))];
msgstr = sprintf('Feature area=%g\nFeature volume=%g\nFeature Euclidean Number=%d\nFeature Perimeter=%g\nFeature Creeper=%g', x(1:5,1));
msgbox(msgstr);

This works:
cellvct = {randi(99, 1, 19)}; % Create Cell
h = msgbox(sprintf('%g\n',cellvct{:})); % Display Cell In ‘msgbox’
