![]() The douche, sleazily voiced by Nick Kroll, is a play on steroid-jacked Italian-Americans. ![]() The pair bicker (“You’ve even occupied the West Bank of the aisle!”), and as the foursome make tracks, they discover they are being hunted by an angry vaginal douche. On their march they are joined by a Jewish bagel (Edward Norton doing the most over-the-top Woody Allen impersonation since Rick Moranis) and an Arabic lavash (David Krumholtz) whose belief in the Great Beyond includes being doused in 77 bottles of virgin olive oil. Sausage Party trailer: Seth Rogan and Kristen Wiig in adult cartoon comedy Warning: this video contains strong languageĭisrupted, Frank and Brenda must get back to their aisle in the hopes of repackaging themselves without getting tossed. I’d personally be OK allowing children to see the goofy prurience in this film, but it’s the horrific imagery (some of which apes Saving Private Ryan) that might freak a kid out. There is a shocking amount of proper, terrorising fear during this and subsequent scenes. A punctured bag of white flour provides a 9/11-esque cloud. The first of a number of extraordinary set-pieces comes when our heroes end up selected (yay!), but an overturned cart leads to chaos. (Unlike Toy Story, where humans are never around to catch the living toys, humans just can’t see the true reality.) But when that shellshocked honey mustard (Danny McBride) returns with stories of the gods actually being bloodthirsty monsters, things start to change. ![]() All is well at the store, with the happy food singing songs of praise to the gods who will one day scoop them up. Our lead sausage Frank (voiced by Rogen) is upbeat, cheery and randy for his shelfmate Brenda (Kristen Wiig), a bun who returns his affection. This is all preposterous, but stick with it it’s just the tip of surprisingly thorough world-building in this quite-clever comedy. If they are good and obey the gods, they will one day be chosen and taken to the “Great Beyond” (outside the gleaming automated doors in a cart.) But they will only get picked if they remain pure of spirit the “unfresh” get tossed into a dusty bin by a sadist tormentor (actually just a teen bored with his job.) This fear prevents sausages and buns from getting intimate, despite their urges to conjoin. Its occupants (food from around the world) are kept compliant by an unprovable belief system. ![]() The supermarket is what Erving Goffman might call a total institution. ![]()
