Sausage Party

An R rated raunchy comedy film is nothing new these days, especially if it comes from Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg. An R rated animated raunchy comedy, however, is a very rare thing due to always associating animation with something for children. Sausage Party is one such example as one would think an animated film with anthropomorphic food would be very kid friendly, but when it has cursing, bloody and violent scenes, and a whole five to ten minute sex scene near the end what else would you expect. Even knowing this film is going to be raunchy, when going into the film you see a whole message that can be seen as a metaphor towards the different beliefs in the world, and it does it in such a way that is both compelling and hilarious. Rogen voices a sausage named Frank, alongside Kristen Wiig as a bun, Bill Hader as a bottle of liquor, Edward Norton as a bagel, Salma Hayek as a lesbian taco, and numerous other actors in very comedic performances. With animation on par with that of Disney's films, especially as it makes fun of several elements in their films, Party is hilarious, shocking, and absolutely entertaining, though the sex orgy at the end felt a bit too long at times. Three stand out moments that make the film truly iconic are the scenes involving a chewed up piece of gum, the massacre of several foods that were bought, and the ending battle where the foods fight back. Over all: 97%
