★★★★★ Spy
A surprisingly tight, constantly humorous espionage spoof that finds new ways to be funny given the familiar material.

★★★★½ Spy
Not just one of the year’s funniest comedies, but also the funniest film McCarthy or Feig have made so far.

★★★★★ Entourage
Anyone unfamiliar with the HBO show will be able to get by, but there's nothing here to warrant a theatrical release.

★★★★★ San Andreas
A hell of a lot of fun.

★★★½★ Aloha
After rebounding with 'We Bought A Zoo,' Cameron Crowe's heavily-edited 'Aloha' isn't going to restore the faith of those who want to see him succeed again. It's good, but could/should have been better.

★★★★★ Poltergeist
Almost suffers from familiarity in the scares department, but is far from the travesty fanboys anticipated.
Brooks Bird
PG
★★★★★ Tomorrowland
Has all the right ingredients for a blockbuster souffle, but ultimately falls flat.

★★★½★ Pitch Perfect 2
While still not a great movie, 'Pitch Perfect 2' finally finds the right balance between songs, laughs, and heart.

★★★★★ Mad Max: Fury Road
Do-not-miss entertainment of the highest order. You owe it to your eyeballs to see this film.

★★★★★ Hot Pursuit
A boring, jokeless waste of two very likable actresses.

★★★★½ Avengers: Age of Ultron
Flashy in all the right ways, sets the bar mighty high for the upcoming summer season.

★★★★½ Ex Machina
The film 'Her' wished it was.

★★★½★ Monkey Kingdom
Full of beautiful cinematography, and plenty of “how did they even film that” moments.

★★★★★ Unfriended
Boring and sometimes bloody, but mostly just a bloody mess.

★★★★★ True Story
Fantastic performances keep the suspense building.

★★★★★ The Longest Ride
The flashbacks might be better than the present day story, but the cast help it rise above the clichéd Sparks tropes.

PG-13
★★★★★ Furious 7
The perfect way to kick the blockbuster season into high gear before Summer of Awesome 2015 finally arrives.

★★★★★ Get Hard
Never mean-spirited, but always in bad taste.
Brooks Bird
PG
★★★★★ Home
Boring and humorless, avoid at all costs.

★★★½★ Insurgent
Better than the first, but still not great.
Brooks Bird
PG
★★★½★ Cinderella
A gorgeous production with a plodding pace, the animated 'Frozen Fever' short is the only reason worth going.
Brooks Bird

★★★★★ Run All Night
A boring repeat of Neeson's film past.

PG
★★★★★ The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
Not at all necessary, yet entirely enjoyable, the second 'Best Exotic Marigold Hotel' deserves a second though.

★★½★★ Chappie
A convoluted mess that never comes together no matter how many nuts and bolts Blomkamp uses.
