Sausage Party - Es geht um die Wurst

Nothing in the trailers will prepare you for this movie, including what it's actually about. SAUSAGE PARTY is an allegory about religion and how ridiculous it is, but also about how we can overcome our differences and learn to get along. Granted, there is no solution proposed nor does the humor rarely rise above obvious sexual puns and stereotypes (different foods represent ethnic groups, minorities, etc.), but the throw-everything-at-the-wall approach guarantees that at least some of it sticks. And importantly, for a comedy, there are plenty of genuine laughs to be had. Then there's the ending, which I will not spoil. Suffice it to say that it seemed oddly appropriate...and that you can get away with quite a bit more in an animated film than live-action. This wasn't the craziest or funniest thing I've ever seen, but it made for a few dollars and a couple hours well-spent.

A fun dark comedy about the insane premise of sentient food struggling through an existential crisis of being eaten by humans. As usual for most Seth Rogan comedies, the comedy is pretty hit-or-miss with an unhealthy reliance on cheap stoner humor, excessive swearing, intercourse jokes, and shock value. However, there is a surprising layer of thoughtful commentary on the affects of religion as a means of a coping mechanism against our inevitable mortality. How it can be used for good or evil, depending on who wields the power of prophecy. And how atheists must be careful to not push away their theistic loved ones or else suffer a fate of loneliness. However, the blatant mistreatment of the animators is disgusting and should be condemned. Overall, I laughed more times than I cringed, so ultimately I'd recommend this as long as you have decent stomach for Seth Rogan's raunchy comedies.

Vulgar, disgusting, hilarious and brilliant all rolled into one.

There are two sequences in this animated film, one in the first half and the other in the second half, that are both hilarious and I don't say that often. The rest is good enough, but it's those two parts that make this special, though I suppose a somewhat dirty cartoon for adults is in itself kind of special. It's the humorous, though also sad, story of store foods that believe that when they are sold they go the some sort of paradise. A few are non-believers and thus begins the religious metaphors. The voice work is great especially from Seth Rogan who is pretty much the lead as well as one of the co-writers. Not all of this works, but what does is pretty cool.

Okay, to start this off: this movie is definitely NOT for kids. It definitely deserves its R-rating. Sausage Party is one of those movies that will make you say: what the hell am I watching?

To be frank(see what I did there?), this movie fulfilled every bit of expectation I had, no more and no less in its "well, I think I've seen enough" factor. What I mean by that, is that this is the most vulgar and xenophobic animated movie I've ever seen but in a good way. As obnoxious as this movie is, I can't help but giggle half the time when I'm watching it, even though how disgusting and indecent some of the scenes are, especially at the end. And mostly because of that, I will never see food the same way ever again(the animation is pretty good though).

Maybe my only true complaint about this movie was the ending, since it seems it was just tacked in there "just because" but to be fair, the movie was already weird as it is. So yeah, the ending for me felt kinda random and I feel that it should've ended in that particular scene before it but overall, I don't think it won't affect what most people thought about this film. Though I expect that this movie will offend a lot of people but to hell with that! let your immature side take over for a while and enjoy this film about food getting it on and on and on..... and on.

If you like humor that is both weird and outrageously crass but still remotely funny, then look no further since Sausage Party is the movie for you.
