Check out reviews of “Love & Mercy,” a biopic of Beach Boys’ Brian Wilson, “Spy,” a secret agent spoof with Melissa McCarthy, and “Entourage,” the big screen version of an HBO series get the once-over from Russ Simmons.

Russ warns us about “San Andreas,” a disaster flick starring The Rock and explains why “An Honest Liar,” a documentary about magician “The Amazing Randi” is worth your time.

“Tomorrowland,” Disney’s big budget sci-fi extravaganza and two art house flicks — “Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter,” “The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared” — are on Russ’ agenda this week.

In a really unusual week, Russ gives ‘thumbs way up’ to three new movies, “Mad Max: Fury Road,” “Pitch Perfect 2,” and “Far From the Madding Crowd.”

Russ explains that two lame buddy Hollywood comedies — “Hot Pursuit” and “The D Train” — are the best that Hollywood can offer us this week.

Could two films be more divergent? Russ takes on “Marvel’s The Avengers: Age of Ultron,” the comic book juggernaut, and “The Clouds of Sils Maria,” an art film about a aging actress.

Russ thinks “Ex Machina,” a new sci-fi effort is the year’s best so far. “The Water Diviner,” Russell Crowe’s directorial debut, and “Little Boy,” a new faith-based offering are also covered.

“Unfriended,” a unique and original new horror entry gets a few “likes” from Russ.

Russ scrutinizes “Merchants of Doubt,” a frightening but important documentary about professional spin doctors who create confusion about the concept of climate change.

Russ marvels at the empty-headed joys of “Furious 7,” the latest action epic in the “Fast and Furious” franchise.
