Sausage Party

I had a dream about fat stars, who, stoned on a couch, who came up with the idea of film in which they want to insert a talking wiener into a chubby bun. Then I woke up, I was at the cinema watching Sausage Party, and it looked more like a first-rate nightmare. Points for penetrating the sterile moralistic vacuum of animators, zero for any real subversiveness and meatiness. A soy substitute for things by Matt Stone and Trey Parker. A Lavash bagel having sex is not enough for me to squirt light mayonnaise, you sausages. (31/08/2016)

Death and mutilation. Food at the mercy of the Gods in the fight against the faith that for so many years determined their mission… Who would have said that movies by Seth Rogen and Simon Pegg would grace the summer blockbuster season (no really, this summer was all about Star Trek and Sausage Party), but thank God for that. Probably just these two can deliver originality and quality. They managed to create another classic. An unscrupulous cartoon full of cussing and sexual innuendo, about the importance of faith and community, friendship and modern relationships. An unbelievable storm of ideas (not always exploited to the full) almost with potential for a series, there are too many shelves. The perfect characters personifying various opinions on faith and a great explanation of the concept of religion become slightly lost in the attempt to please today’s audience, but there is a message. Excellent jokes, impressive subtitling. I look forward to seconds. (27/08/2016)

Sometimes they try too hard, but Sausage Party is so impossibly dirty, but at the same time an impossibly imaginative, original and entertaining film, which is completely different to everything I've seen. It's not at all as primitive a spectacle as it might seem at first glance, and after a few minutes. (28/01/2018)

This is just a total nightmare. A bunch of completely unintelligent jokes with an even bigger pile of bad words crammed into a sleazy and disgusting movie. Not to mention the pathetic scene at the end. Lessons learned for next time? When Seth Rogen writes the screenplay for something, it can never be all that good. (14/09/2016)

This is definitely food porn loaded with profanity and scenes that cross the line for some. On the other hand, it's an adult cartoon, so it's clear they're not going to be freeing Willy. On the one hand, I appreciate that the film makes a statement about such "weepy" issues as religion, otherness, ethnicity, and so on, but keeps it at the level of fun; of course, nothing deeper comes of it. In the end, basically all those stereotypes are used to entertain or dramatize the scene. Of course, some of the (pop) culture references were right on, ditto the visit from the candy-coated Stephen Hawking. The songs chosen were great and you could see the filmmakers were having fun with it. On the other hand, just bad language and now and then good and playful ideas are not enough to make you 100% interested in a film. Besides, the animation didn't impress me much either. I don't think watching it will hurt, if you don't mind that it's not exactly a story with a moral lesson and that the climax is a real climax. A better 3 stars. After all, even the day after watching it I was thinking about the film, mainly because I had no idea how to rate it. (25/08/2016)
