The Villainessis a loopy, bloody trip: EW review

The Villainesskicks off with a six-minute symphony of pure action-film invention. The camera moves through a corridor, a stairway, a window, a meth lab. There are guns, knives, blood spraying every direction. Credit: Cannes Film Festival One of the bad dudes physically grabs the killer/you, bashing the camera against the wall-length mirror. This is your first sight of Sook-hee (Kim Ok-bin), the titular villainess. Theres a shift away from first-person perspective after that....

The voice ofThe Assassination of Jesse Jamesrevisits the mistreated masterpiece

He regretted neither his robberies nor the 17 murders that he laid claim to. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Fordis not a typical Western. Andrew Dominiks direction has more in common with Terrence Malick than John Ford. Credit: Everett Collection (But even Malick told Dominik it was too slow.) Theres only one major set piece, a tense train robbery just 15 minutes into its two-and-a-half-hour runtime....

Luckily for us at home, though, their performance isnt half bad tonight. Whats not to like about them? Theyre gorgeous, sweet, and fashionable, and they carry themselves with a sense of elegance and self-possession. Credit: Tyler Golden/NBC They can predict each others every breath and complement one another like theyre the others missing limb.

Surprising send-offs, second steals, and snubs galore! The knockouts, however, are shaping up to be a different story altogether. Heres how the knockouts went down in round one. Credit: Tyler Golden/NBC On the other hand, though, Sundance Head is much more interesting to watch onstage tonight. Winner: Simone Gundy NEXT: Is this Season 11s shoo-in?

It can be done, but there are some consequences to the hurry-up approach. Even so, her show is pretty one-note tonight…which isnt altogether uncommon for her at this point. We McDonald Home by Diana Ross Lets face it; We McDonald is decidedly not on her game tonight.

As Blake Shelton puts it, it kinda shreds and gets raspy [with] more character and passion. Is it too little too late, though? Tonight, though, the speed-up-slow-down pacing of the number has everyone confused, especially Billy. Credit: Tyler Golden/NBC NEXT: Is this the new frontrunner? Is there a singing version of that pixie-like speaking voice she always stuns with? The guy doesnt miss. He knows hes a redux of the entire jam band generation, and he doesnt care....

Two more say goodbye Well, that was unexpected… Although, maybe it shouldnt have been. What they accomplish with their numbers of the night, however, is a mixed bag. Credit: Tyler Golden/NBC But what he does, he does well most of the time. And with that, weve all forgotten just how WTF his showing last night was. Well played, indeed.

You be the judge. Heres what happened in tonights Top 8 performances. This week, Christian goes full throttle in search of evangelical voters. Credit: Tyler Golden/NBC Look, hes not my personal pick for the finale… But I can still see him getting there. Has there ever been one this one-sided, though?
