Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Part twisted entertainment, part government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until one survivor remains. Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she’s ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love. The world will be watching.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

I love Minions but they have become major cashgrab territory from cheaply made products to masses of mini-movies that simply aren't very good.Thankfully it's not all like that and Panic in the Mailroom is a nice surprise and fun little short. Excluding credits we're talking about 4 minutes in length and it tells the quick tale of two minions in the mailroom and the craziness that takes place when one turns into one of those frenzied purple minions we saw in one of the movies.It's madcap, it's silly and it has the charm of the features so I personally enjoyed it.Again its only 4 minutes long so blink and you'll miss it but among the shorts this is certainly one of the better ones.The Good:Feels like it's "Official"Fun stuffThe Bad:Nothing reallyThings I Learnt From This Short:I want to see a purple minions movie, is that wrong?

"Panic in the Mailroom" is an animated 4-minute short film that came out briefly after "Despicable Me" and features two Minions from start to finish. They take up the plot idea again that Minions were transformed into evil Minions in the movie. I watched the new Minions film recently and I have to say that these films got worse and worse by movie and even if I still mildly enjoyed the second film, mostly thanks to the antagonist El Macho, these short films don't do much for me. There were already 3 short films after the first film and I found them underwhelming and this one here is not better. I guess maybe the Minions just cannot carry for me. The last shot with the transforming cats was a good idea, but it cannot make up for everything boring before that. Not recommended.
