Unable to beat 'Suicide Squad' for the number one spot, 'Sausage Party' surprised with big box office sales finishing out at number two. Perhaps most were enticed by the trailer which began as though it was a children's movie but was then made quite clear it was far from it. Despite all the gags would expect from a screenplay partially written by Seth Rogen, 'Sausage Party' had a deeper subliminal message that wasn't so subtle.
A majority of the characters were produce items in a grocery store holding the belief that once they were bought they were sent to the great beyond, or a heaven. They had a variety of different beliefs, most of them mocking several types of big religions. The main character then was to find out that the great beyond was a hoax made up by other characters to control the other characters and to have order within the grocery store. Therefore, the characters were limited to certain rules in order to please the gods, or humans.
The message behind this movie was clearly not driven by a fondness of organized religion. If you thought 'Sausage Party' was just full of stupidity and simple gags, you're going to be in for a look into the meaning of our lives instead.
