4/10
Minions in your front yard

Warning: Spoilers
"Mower Minions" is a 4-minute animated short film that is shown in theaters these days before a full feature animated movie about pets. The title already gives away that this is another Minions short film and there are quite a few these days already. Here the Minions watch television and see a spot that promotes a banana blender, that the gang immediately wants to purchase. But where is the money? The Minions decide to do some lawn-mowing for a bunch of old people and of course it all goes wrong that can go wrong including barbecue grill explosions, garden gnomes bursting and of course trouble with the mower itself too. All in all, I would say that this one was more chaotic than funny. But at least the Minions got their reward in the end, even if they did not succeed with their initial task. I wish i could have liked the action as much as the senior citizens did, but nope. I give this one a thumbs-down and don't recommend the watch. It seems to get more and more difficult to create entertaining story lines around these wee yellow fellas. I just hope "Despicable Me 3" next year will get more entertaining again.
