movie review - Sausage Party

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2018.08.13

This is an animated story about supermarket food products that become aware that they are food stuffs and other disposable products - and then fail to recover from that realization. Instead of finding freedom, they have a giant orgy. There's a plot with an antagonist that's a douche bottle that controls its human captives in a perhaps predictable fashion. Anyway, it's all madness and very puerile. I watched it, but felt that it's not worth a second viewing. I mean, according to my Netflix viewing logs, it took me five years to get around to even writing this much!

Not recommended.

If it's true that our species is alone in the universe, then I'd have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little.
