Last week, Kitty Brucknell left the competition and Louis Walsh went down in flames. The first judge out of the game. It’s Movie Night!

Dermot enters, dancing to the Bond theme with dancers. X Factor judges are next.

Craig Colton – License To Kill – James Bond, License To Kill
Boys attended Gary’s charity gig in Manchester. Gary put together CIN charity single this year. Look it up on YouTube if you dare(The Collective – Teardrop). Pretty dire cover, Tulisa sings the chorus. We go back to Craig’s hometown, meet his parents, blah, blah, blah.
Gary: Craig is a normal northern guy, but he is a star in the making.

Craig in a suit, sings a song, is boring as hell. The usual business.

Louis: Bad song choice, you are better than that.
Tulisa: You sounded amazing, but this was predictable.
Kelly: You always deliver vocally, I want more personality.
Gary: This is a singing competition, not a song choosing competition. You completely nailed it, as usual.

Janet Devlin – Kiss Me – She’s All That
Girls went to Twilight: Breaking Dawn premiere this week, had a makeover in a hotel.

This is more uptempo than Janet’s usual performances, but it’s a bit middle of the road for me. Janet does her thing, nothing spectacular happens.

Louis: You are a real recording star.
Tulisa: You are back in your comfort zone.
Gary: Great improvement. Well done.
Kelly: Great performance.

Amelia Lily – Think – Bridget Jones
We see Amelia’s backstage reaction from last Saturday when she was told she was voted back in the competition. Girls went to a spa and BD premiere.
Uh, weird song choice. Rock arrangement. Amelia wears a pink dress and has dancers/backing singers, works the stage.

Louis: You are the one to watch in this competition.
Tulisa: You sounded and looked amazing. I didn’t feel the song choice. I don’t know that song. (??? OMG REALLY?)
Gary: Fantastic performance.
Kelly: You did a great job. Not everyone will know the song, I will just leave it at that.

Misha Bryan – I Have Nothing – The Bodyguard
After a great performance last week, Misha ended up in the bottom 2 and had to sing for her survival. It’s operation SAVE MISHA B. Both Misha and Kelly have problems with their parents. We see tears and hugs. Ugh, this looked staged.
Misha B sings the boore of a song. Damn it, I want old Misha back.

Louis: You bring something new every week. Manchester, pick up your phones!
Tulisa: I don’t even know where to start, you look beautiful, you are amazing, Manchester, pick up your phones and vote!
Gary: I was so sad to see you in the bottom 2, you don’t deserve that. But it seems this is affecting your performances. This was too safe and predictable. Forget about it, if you go out, go out with a bang.
Kelly: Great performance, everyone pick your phones and vote for Misha.

Little Mix – Don’t Let Go – Set It Off
They work hard, met The Saturdays this week. Tulisa’s little muffins also went to BD premiere. Taylor Lautner is a fan.
Wow, this is good!

Louis: Loved everything about it.
Kelly: The best girl group that came out of the UK.
Gary: Your best performance to date. Brilliant. I want to hear something stripped back next week.
Tulisa: Is very proud, says the girls are not safe, so the nation has to pick up their phones.

Marcus Collins – Higher And Higher – Ghostbusters II
Marcus met Rebecca Ferguson this week.
Marcus wears pink and has a big choir on stage. Also steps and a platform. This was a great performance, but the choir did the trick, IMO.

Louis: Every week you bring something new, star in the making.
Tulisa: This is what movie week is about.
Kelly: Marcus has shut the building down.
Gary: The performance of the night!

Rihanna and Rebecca Ferguson perform tomorrow night.

Ugh, tonight’s show sucked.

My favorite performance tonight was from Little Mix. It was fun and it worked.
Marcus Collins shut the building down, but IMO, the choir did the trick.
The show completely sucked the life out of Misha B this week. It took only one week for fierce and exciting Misha B to become a boring ballad singer. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t blame Misha for this. It’s just tragic that after all those fierce performances and two bottom 2 appearances Misha now does “I Have Nothing” in a white dress.
Amelia‘s song choice was weird for her. I would prefer to hear “Think” from Misha B. Amelia did her best with what she was given. I hope she is safe.
Janet … is Janet. She was okay, but not really memorable.
Craig Colton was … boring. Zzzzzzz.

Who I want in to bottom this week: Hmmm. Janet and Craig. I’m afraid it won’t happen.
