Let's start with out hometown hero, Eric Eisenberg, as he had a couple great thoughts surrounding his experience at Sausage Party:
#SausageParty is disgusting raunchy, and crazy hilarious. God Damn #SXSW
— Eric Eisenberg (@eeisenberg) March 15, 2016
You've seriously never seen anything like #SausageParty, and the ending is absolutely brilliant. I'm standing outside & still laughing #SXSW

Ross A. Lincoln from Deadline was the first of the night to comment on what he'd seen, and judging by his reaction, he might be mulling this one over a little more in the coming day or so.
What the fuck did I just watch? I watched groceries fuck each other. #SausageParty
— Ross A. Lincoln (@Rossalincoln) March 15, 2016
In a follow up tweet, Lincoln complimented the film by stating that it was worth the lack of sleep required to get into the advanced screening. Meanwhile, another audience member dropped this rather vague evaluation on the effect Sausage Party is going to have on the great big meme machine that is the internet.
#SausageParty is going to break the Internet. Just. Whoa. #SXSW2016

This next tweet puts Sausage Party in good company for you folks who like your movies a little more hardcore, as one viewer proclaimed the following:
SAUSAGE PARTY and HARDCORE HENRY have each been completely great and F’d up ways to end the last two nights. #SXSW #sausageparty #sxswfilm

Probably the most glowing rave of praise for Sausage Party comes from this next tweet, which sums up the film with all of the makings of a blockbuster:
The world is a better place now that #SausageParty has been unleashed upon it. Perverse, hilarious with a bit of politics. #SXSW
— Stephen Brandow (@Brand0w) March 15, 2016
Of course, if you want a little more hyperbole, then check out this little slice of uplift:
Will do for animated movies what DEADPOOL did for supes. Look out, Pixar! #SausageParty https://t.co/k0R1mcXXut

Now if you're thinking Sausage Party is going to be without its thoughtful, tender moments; then the evaluation from Jada Yuan of New York Magazine might be of interest to you:
So I feel really guilty about being super hungry leaving a movie about food having feelings #SausageParty #SXSW2016
— Jada Yuan (@jadabird) March 15, 2016
The same caveat goes for this next tweet, which lays a very heavy mantle on Seth Rogen's animated comedy:
It took 17 years but SAUSAGE PARTY is finally the R-rated smart and crazy animated comedy we've wanted since the SOUTH PARK movie. #SXSW

After this first wave of reactions, Sausage Party looks to be on the track to glory. Though there's bound to be some detractors out there, sharpening their knives and thinking of the perfect way to say what they thought was wrong with the film. We'll see if the market takes to the more positive side of the reactions, or sides with the haters, when the film opens on August 12th.
