J-Bang Reviews Presents: Sausage Party (Rated-R Edition)

JESUS F#*KING CHRIST! There is literally NO LINE this movie won't cross! Brought to us by the stoner mind of Seth Rogen, "Sausage Party" tells the tasteful tale of a hot dog finding out the truth about the existence of food. As far as I know, "Sausage Party" is the first Rated R cartoon comedy to come out in theaters since the 90s, and the writers do everything in their power to make sure everyone who watches it knows that this movie is NOT FOR KIDS! Seriously, if you are a parent and think it's a good idea to take your 4 year old kid to see this film, I will officially nominate you for the campaign of 2016's "Bad Parent of the Year" award.
Aside from the hilariously raunchy jokes, AND THERE ARE A SHIT-LOAD, "Sausage Party" does end up delivering the promise of an original story that somehow correlates to a metaphor of religion and the system of belief. No character feels one dimensional, and practically all the main characters have a moment that feels more than deserved. Plus, even though everyone is practically a piece of food, the superb voice acting supplied by a cast head-lined by Seth Rogen, Kristen Wigg, Michael Cera, Edward Norton, and Nick Kroll help somewhat "humanize" this bizarre cast of characters. The best advice I can give for this animated fuck-fest is GO SEE IT for yourself! But I must warn you, like the talking Twinkie says, "Once you see that shit...IT WILL FUCK YOU UP FOR LIFE!" I'm giving one of my favorite movies of the year a J-Bangin score of 4.5 out of 5! "Sausage Party" guaran-freaking-tees a fun time at the movies...if you got the stomach for it that is!
