“Entourage,” my guilt pleasure movie of the week, is a hit. Last night Vinnie and the boys took in $5.4 million (including receipts from late Tuesday). They beat “San Andreas,” which had $3.9 million. It Warner Bros. v. Warner Bros, so they’re happy whatevuh, as they say. Melissa McCarthy’s “Spy” will knock them both off this week, and then “Jurassic World” is on the way.

But for this weekend, “Entourage” may finish second to “Spy” if it builds. Reviews were terrible– Tony Scott in the New York Times just went for it– but the movie is a lot of fun, you don’t need to know anything from the series, and if you can hide a flask, I recommend a nice G&T to wash it all down.

Oh yeah: “Aloha” is already at number 7 mid week. This Friday should kill it off. But I’m going to try and see it anyway. You never know…
