El Camino: Breaking Bad Movie

I loved Breaking Bad so I was excited when the movie became available on Netflix. When I was finished watching it I just thought “why did they even bother making this movie”? Yes, Jesse has to find a way to escape the law, so what? I already assumed he was going to have to do that when he drove off into the meth midnight. Was the movie really necessary? Did it reveal anything amazing? IMO, no.

Anyone watch the movie? What did you think about it?

 

Yeah it was pretty good tbh!

 

I felt the cinematography was great and obviously in keeping with the shows style but the plot was lacking.

They could have shaved the entire thing down to a 45 minute special, maybe even less. Plus it was awkward seen Badger noticeably thinner and Todd noticeably fatter.

I hear they were waiting for El Camino to come out before adding more Better Call Saul episodes.

 

I agree with you , it's like they just added another two episodes to the show that weren't actually crucial
Anyway , I loved seeing jessie in the spotlight , not under walter's shadow

 

Bingo! I was excited to see a movie primary focused on Jesse too but one that had new developments regarding his life, not an hour retracing his captivity and some added shit about Todd. It’s not like we needed more reasons to hate Todd or understand why Jesse hated him.

 

True, and I really hate the fact that he's changed a lot, gained a lot of weight and looked like an old man rather than the screwed up teen in the series, I struggled to feel like it's actually a flashback
We can all agree that the movie was dissapointing and didn't deserve all the hype
They just wanted to close that open ending
I liked the cinematography though, and Aaron paul acting is what made the movie good at least

 

It was a a gopd movie

 

Todd was a dick

 

Well making money is kind of the point, lol.

 

It ecplained what happened to jesse
