Sausage Party

Leave it to the minds of Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg to deliver 2016's raunchiest animated movie — Sausage Party, which drops on the streaming service Feb. 23. After a terrible accident in the grocery store, a group of friends go on a journey to discover what is really happening between the produce aisles. 

The very adult but family-friendly-looking movie has an incredible voice cast, including Rogen, Kristen Wiig, Salma Hayek, James Franco, Bill Hader, Michael Cera and Jonah Hill. While it may have missed the boat on earning an Oscar nomination for best animated movie, critics enjoyed Sausage Party for being inventive, offensive and absolutely as crude as possible.
