Yes, this adult animated film is a real must-see. Why? Because it's honest (up to impropriety) about everything: sexism, racism, LGBT issues and other kinds of discrimination that still exist today. So it turns out an actually good parody of people's lives, and it doesn't matter that the main characters are different products as they face the same problems.

Disadvantages
  • Too vulgar

"Strangenesses"

Clue Moments

  • The failure
  • Meeting with Kareem, Sammy and Teresa
  • Douche's revenge
  • Barry's escape
  • The Druggie
  • A Stephen Hawking–esque wad of chewing gum
  • The battle
  • A massive orgy
  • The portal
