Coming into the movie Sausage Party, I didn’t have much of a clue about what to expect. Seeing the previews, my initial impression was that it was a children’s movie. I was quickly put in my place by reading reviews.  Needless to say, I enjoyed this rated-R animated movie that came from the mind of Seth Rogen.

The movie begins with a lovely Disney-esque song that is preformed by the produce section of an every-super market super market. As a type of foreshadow for the movie, the song goes from innocent in the beginning to downright raunchy at the end. The people sitting around me start to giggle, laugh, then pick up their jaws from their laps.

A sausage then appears next to packages of buns and it’s clear there is a relationship between a sausage, Frank, (Seth Rogen) and a bun, Brenda, (Kristen Wiig). They talk about going to the “Great Beyond” together, which is an obvious nod to a food version of Heaven.

The buns and sausages get picked to go to the great beyond, but dumped out of the grocery cart and try to find their way back. While finding a way back Frank and Brenda meet every type of food along the way and decide to stay friendly with a bagel, a falafel, and a spicy taco. All while inadvertently pissing off a literal douche. Not to mention the several other foods that got to find out what the “Great Beyond” really entails.

Playing with the different actors and the large laughability of personifying food, much of the same way Pixar and Disney has personified many other inanimate objects, the writers of “Sausage Party” were able to make this animated movie as crude and brash as possible, even while throwing in heavy references to religion, life after death, and the pursuit of happiness.

So please people, get passed the insane ending to see what it really was; a plead to live life as happy and as free as possible without caring too much about what happens after what happens to us when we’re gone.

In the seemingly long journey to understand themselves and where they come from, Frank and his friends discover the true meaning of life. With references to conflicts in the Middle East disguised as silly jokes to revealing the *true* pleasures of life, “Sausage Party” is the best animated adult comedy this generation has ever seen.
