4 Reasons You Need To See Sausage Party

If you have yet to see the cinematic masterpiece that is Sausage Party, then I truly insist that you walk away from your electronic device right now and go and view such a thing. Not only is this movie jam-packed with hysterical scenes and quirky characters, but the idea of food having feelings and personalities is perfectly brought to life through actors such as Seth Rogen, Michael Cera and Jonah Hill. So, if you're looking for reasons to see such a standout comedy, then keep reading:

1. The characters

Usually, I would not be able to picture food having emotions. How could a sausage's ultimate dream be to get inside of a bun? How believable could Firewater getting ridiculously high be? And can bath salts truly make your food talk? This movie brings characters like Frank the hot dog, Brenda the bun, Sammy the bagel and Vash the flatbread into a believable reality where we completely connect with what is essentially, food. Yet, you can't help but feel terrified for them when it is finally revealed what awaits for these edible folks in the Great Beyond.

2. The storyline

The trailer made this film look like a cartoon horror movie. With baby carrots rolling to their deaths and potato skins being slashed, the violence and carnage that becomes of the food is definitely graphic. However, it isn't only scenes of despair and torment that engulf the movie. An utterly evil douche (literally, a douche) roames around looking to get stronger, the imperishables hide secrets from the rest of the food and Frank and Brenda constantly have a love hate relationship once they realize that saving Honey Mustard may have been a huge mistake. It is full of interconnected plotlines that you definitely will not want to miss.

3. The actors

Which other movie shows Paul Rudd playing a depressed grocery store worker who throws away hot dogs out of spite? Or James Franco as a lazy druggie who uses bath salts? Or even Salma Hayek playing a highly sexual taco that pines for Brenda? The cast of this movie makes it what it is, and it's hysterical to know who plays what part. Danny McBride as the traumatized Honey Mustard, Crag Robinson as the bad ass Mr. Grits and Bill Hader as the smooth talking Firewater are just some of my personal favorites.

4. The inappropriateness

The audience has to have an open mind and a good sense of humor going into this movie. Inappropriate and crude jokes are thrown out left, right and center, and the viewer has to be prepared. Whether it's Frank and Brenda reaching out of their packages to "touch tips" or Hitler wanting to exterminate the juice, the scenes in this movie are bursting with too many jokes to count - and that's what makes it so great.

So if you're still looking for a movie to see to end the summer, look no further. Sausage Party has everything you need if you're looking for laughs, an all-star cast and food that has one goal...to not get eaten.
