Funny but filthy animated comedy has tons of sex, swearing.
Parents need to know that Sausage Party is a very raunchy animated comedy (from the writers of Superbad and Pineapple Express) that's most definitely not for kids. There's constant use of extreme language, with multiple uses of "f--k," "s--t," and tons of…

Graphic, suggested sex among food characters, with thrusting, groaning, kissing, and spanking. Many different kinds of sex acts are implied, including oral sex. Male and female genitalia and body parts are suggested via animation/character design. Very strong, constant sexual innuendo and sex talk. A talking used condom. A douche forces itself into a man's rectum.

Some gory animated images (i.e. humans "murdering" food items). A decapitated human head. Knives and guns shown. Fighting. Characters are threatened.

Characters smoke pot. Human character shoots up "bath salts" (complete with spoon, lighter, and hypodermic needle). Hallucinations. Reference to "tripping balls." Two characters, Firewater and Tequila, are bottles of booze, so there are some jokes about drinking.

Tons of crude content yields mixed messages: The movie encourages characters to take action and to think for themselves, but their faith is discouraged. And different cultures are encouraged to work together and set aside differences, but at the same time, the movie ridicules and stereotypes just about every culture under the sun, including Asians, Germans, the British, Mexicans, Jews, people of Middle-Eastern descent, Native Americans, African Americans, etc.).
The main character is a brave leader, but he also exhibits frequent problematic behavior that goes unpunished. Lots of cultural/racial stereotyping.
Parents need to know that Sausage Party is a very raunchy animated comedy (from the writers of Superbad and Pineapple Express) that's most definitely not for kids. There's constant use of extreme language, with multiple uses of "f--k," "s--t," and tons of other words. Plus, the sexual innuendo/sex talk never stops, and there are pretty graphic sequences of simulated sex acts of all kinds between the food characters (some of whom are even drawn/designed to look suggestively like genitalia). Animated violence includes gory images of humans "murdering" food, guns and knives, and aggressive, argumentative characters. Food characters smoke pot and get high, and a human character shoots up bath salts (with a spoon and needle) and hallucinates. Although the movie encourages characters to think and act for themselves, that comes at the expense of faith. And while different cultures are encouraged to work together, the film simultaneously ridicules and/or stereotypes most of those cultures.
