This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. El Camino is entertaining, features great cinematography (that improves upon Breaking Bad) and a great acting performance from Aaron Paul (arguably better than in the series). It deals with some necessary realities an truths of the aftermath of Breaking Bad, especially in the first scene where Jesse discusses "put[ing] things right" and Mike reminds Jesse, "that's the one thing you can never do." But by the end of El Camino, Jesse is essentially in the same place he was at the end of Breaking Bad - in terms of his arc and development, but just with fewer loose ends. It's a likable movie and not useless, as it certainly adds helpful details and answers some questions, but only if we consider it an addition to Jesse's story, rather than the final conclusion of Breaking Bad. Ultimately, you can make your own call - is Jesse's story better left with the question marks and uncertainty? I think nothing was going to beat his final scene in Breaking Bad and that was possibly the perfect conclusion for him, but I did not regret watching this. Expand

So I was both excited and EXTREMELY skeptical when this film was announced. Thankfully, most of my concerns were for nothing, as this is an extremely well put together production. While I absolutely adore the beauty and ambiguity of Jesse driving off, joyful tears in his eyes, at the end of the show, there is still more to Jesse’s journey that we didn’t get to see. Aaron Paul is as good here as he was in the best episodes of the show; he hasn’t skipped a beat, and he’s totally Oscar-worthy. It nails the look and feel of the show, and the cameos from characters are wholly satisfying and awesome. It may be a little overlong for how much plot there is; I could easily see this being condensed down into the length of an episode, but I was never bored. I do wonder if this would’ve been better if it was instead a little miniseries of maybe four or so hour-long episodes (something that Netflix has done before with Gilmore Girls; hopefully this would’ve turned out a little better than that did) instead of a single two hour chunk, but I’m still happy with what we got.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. El Camino

El Camino takes place seconds after the series Finale. Jessie escapes Captivity and is on the run, He seeks shelter with some old friends. He comes to the conclusion that he needs to escape and forever by using the Vacuum cleaner repair man from the original series, in an episode where Saul tells Jessie about a guy that can make him disappear forever.

Movie was not needed, Many people wanted to see Walter survive and continue the business but this did not happen, We do however get treated to a nice flashback scene of Walter and Jessie at a Denny's sometime around season 3 or 4 maybe. Walt and Jessie have one last argument and one last hurraw before the final curtain.

Final Grade C-

Movie was not Needed and probably not wanted from certain people, Plot was good but pointless, did not add anything new other than Jessie escaping and hatching a plan to disappear forever. Fans of the series will like and hate this film at the same time. If this was the real plot of the film Gilligan wanted to film than shame on him as it's not that great.

El Camino is a great epilogue to the Breaking Bad series.

The movieEl Camino is a great epilogue to the Breaking Bad series. The movie doesn't stand well on it's own and requires the audience to watch the previous 5 seasons of breaking bad to fully grasp the nature of what's occurring in the movie. The movie is more a homage to the fans of breaking bad who want more. Aaron Pauls performance was excellent and the cinematography was above average but the story of Jesse after the events of Felina felt conflicted with the cluster of flashbacks which served little to no purpose at all and dint add much to the story. On the whole, if you're a fan of Breaking Bad you will most likely appreciate this Netflix Original. I gave this movie a 7 as it serves a solid epilogue and does a good job of rounding off the story of Jesse Pinkman. Expand

But aside from that the movie is a excellent singular character focused story. The film properly offers closure to Jessie's story, and manages to keep bringing parallels to do he was before and who he is now. That he rejects the idea of throwing away his code of morality, evolving as a person while staying true to his heart. Expand

The movie picks up where Breaking Bad finished, following Jesse Pinkman after his great escape. The film is very much in the same tone as the series, dangerous but sprinkled with light and dark humour, and many great tension building scenes. There are also other returning characters from the show, most memorably Todd, aka Meth Damon. The movie is shot well, nice and crisp cinematography, lit with very neo-noir lighting. Flashbacks are used very well within the narrative, explaining Jesse's movements and motives, and foreshadowing future events. And just like the series, music is handled well, in particular, a scene involving Meth Damon and a truck. The movie satisfactorily concludes Jesse Pinkman's arc. I was delighted returning to the BB universe, and I'm happy with the way they chose to end it. Expand

It feels just like an extended episode, and when I say this, believe me, it's a very good thing. Besides what some people say, I don't believe the movie gives any kind of closure, it simply shows what happens to Jesse (Aaron Paul) right after the events of the finale. It also has a lot of flashbacks that are recieved with a certain feeling of nostalgia.
The writting dosen't try to fly too high or be too creative and unfortunately when the topic is Breaking Bad the hype is real and I expected a more clever plot. It does create suspense in many ocasions and although it didn't match my expectations I consider the writting good enough. Maybe not as good as the best episodes of BB, like the train heist, but definetely as good as an averege episode. Just keep in mind that an average episode of Breaking Bad is better than the best espisodes of many, many other shows.
Location scouting and scenarios really shine here. It's a very beatiful movie. The camera work is great and creative witch helps in creating imersion and suspense. The color grading is also very well done.
It's very slow at times, but hey, it's Vince Gilligan, it's Breaking Bad, what else could you expect?
If you are a fan of the show, it's a must watch. If you've never seen the show, the movie is great on it's own but I really recomend watching the show first. After all, it is a folow up.

It’s no spoiler that Robert Forster makes an appearance which demands more of your attention to savour his character after the news of the actor’s untimely passing. Gilligan and Paul’s intention was simple; create a canon future and put to bed any speculation that fans cooked up for themselves, bringing resolve and justice to a dear a legendary television character who will always be forever in our memes.

But I wouldn't say it's the movie you expect, as it lingers far too long on flashbacks made simply to emphasize Jesse's pursuit in a film that's main story carries very little momentum for a feature length film. And the end the result just wasn't as emotionally endearing, mainly because there was not enough conflict or momentum focus between him and the police. The movie was a flachback throwback escapee film, but had Vince given us an adverserial police character, connected to the Walter White investigation months prior to Jesse's escape, it would've brought more resonance and a sense of intrigue rather than the forgettable hippies they gave us. And it would've forced the film to spend much more time in the moment than in the past. But in the end, El Camino is a breath of fresh air, a throwback and a solid Jesse Pinkman send-off tale, but it's certainly not the vivid thriller i was expecting. Expand

Vince Gilligan is Breaking Bad. There's just no other way to put it. And anyone who knows George Vincent Gilligan Jr. also knows that he'll produce pure brilliance regarding anything and everything to which he sets his brilliant mind.

Breaking Bad the television show is often mentioned as being one of the greatest series of all time. Breaking Bad the movie should now be discussed in terms of being one of the greatest television-to-movie continuations of all time.

Nobody should be surprised. Gilligan wrote, directed, and produced 'El Camino.' Throughout the film's masterful puppetry of drama, humor, and violence, we know it's Gilligan who is lording over it all, deftly manipulating the marionette strings.
He's the reason why the show-and now the movie-exists as a tragicomedy that pirouettes at both ends of the tragedy-comedy spectrum. The same goes for David Chase's 'The Sopranos,' a show that similarly has its place on the Mount Rushmore of television. Perhaps Gilligan learned from Chase that humor makes the violence palatable and violence makes the humor essential.

Regardless, Gilligan put his legacy on the line by endeavoring to make 'El Camino.' In doing so, Gilligan doubled down, wagering everything on himself. The result? Gilligan won. Again.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Whilst there is a debate for how necessary this film was for the Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul story, there is no doubt that this movie was extremely well made and could work as a stand-alone movie without the assistance of the famous TV shows. Gilligan and Paul have come together to produce something special once again, with an extremely satisfying ending that Jesse most definitely deserved. Even if some cameos may have been there for the shock-value (looking at you Walt), almost each and every character has a purpose in Jesse's story. An extremely well crafted follow-up to the original series. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Flow was a little mechanical and some scenes needed editing down but subject-wise, a very focused and satisfying epilogue. It is about Jesse on survival mode leaving Albuquerque, that's it. The story's discipline can be a little frustrating such as when Jesse hears about Walt's death. As a viewer, you want to see a Jesse process this complicated event but all we get is 5 seconds of a brilliantly conveyed intense emotion on Aaron's Paul's face that has no one name and then, the a flash of headlights snaps Jesse back to primal concerns. The story seems to be saying: One day, Jesse will reflect back on Walt, on all of it, but it not this day. The missing scenes featuring Mike, Walt and Jane, I thought were relevant and perfect - the three most important people from Jesse's past giving him advice, in their own way, about the future. And that was what his movie was about - Jesse forging some kind of future. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a film that in many ways I did not see the need for it to be made and yet I thought they did more with the film than I thought they could and it is in fact a welcome addition to the Breaking Bad franchise. It is like a trip down memory lane with cameo appearances from Jonathan Banks, Bryan Cranston and a bigger role for the late great Robert Forster. There are several parts within the film that drag somewhat and I found my interest waning but there were many other parts such as the standoff and every scene with Robert Forster or the aforementioned cast that enticed you back in. Of course Aaron Paul was excellent as was the rest of the cast but those expecting something removed from what Breaking Bad the TV show was will be disappointed, this is merely an extended epsiode of the series that reveals what Jesse Pinkman does after the events of the series finale, what more could you expect? Yet I think you'll find they deliver several very nice ideas to a film premise that did not need to be done, Gilligan has taken care with this film, clearly tried his hardest and this effort should most certainly be commended.

Nobody should watch this movie if they didn't watch or like Breaking Bad. It brought full closure to the franchise, there are absolutely 0 loose ends after this, so watch it knowing that chronologically, the only thing that could come after is the ending of Better Call Saul, but totally out of context. Loved the fact that Vince Gilligan decided to do the right move with this movie, not follow any Hollywood-like cliches and keep the fan base entertained at the same time. It basically felt just like a new, longer, Breaking Bad episode that had more cinematic shots and better camera quality. In the rest, some of the characters that made Braking Bad good are coming back to put as smile on your face for seeing them again. Loved every bit of it! Not to forget, Aaron Paul (Jesse), had a brilliant performance and proves once again what a talented actor he is. Usually sequels are a very delicate subject, especially if the main series has set a quality bar very high and El Camino knows how to blend the old and the new in a complete epilogue over the Breaking Bad saga.

Breaking Bad was one of those special shows where everything seemed to come together perfectly. The performances, the monologues, those gorgeous shots of Albuquerque and so much more worked in a way that escalated the series into being one ofBreaking Bad was one of those special shows where everything seemed to come together perfectly. The performances, the monologues, those gorgeous shots of Albuquerque and so much more worked in a way that escalated the series into being one of the greatest shows ever made. So even with the ideal closure that series finale provided, we were all still left wanting more. We got some of that with Better Call Saul, but now El Camino sets out to continue Jesse’s story after Breaking Bad and give us some more closure for one of our favourite meth dealers.

It starts off exactly where Breaking Bad left us, with Jesse speeding down an empty road finally free after months of being enslaved and forced to make meth by a group of white supremacists (that’s a heck of a strange sentence that only makes sense with a show as insane as Breaking Bad). But with the police on his trail, Jesse needs to find a way to get enough money together to get out of town and start a new life. Plus throughout the film Jesse is suffering with PTSD, being haunted by the ghosts of his past and his own mistakes.

The greatest compliment that I can give the film is that it fits in nicely with the rest of the series and upholds Breaking Bad's legacy. Vince Gilligan brings the same creative energy to this film that he brought to the original series and we get a lot of great moments ranging from nail biting suspense to the kind of dark humour that Breaking Bad always excelled at. Plus Aaron Paul is on top form as Jesse providing a few moments that are up there with some of his best moments from the show. It’s also really interesting seeing him play a younger Jesse during several flashbacks and how easily he can still slip in to the carefree version of him that we knew when the show was only just starting. Then only moments later the film will cut to the current Jesse, with the stark contrast in Paul’s performance being a strong reminder of how much the past few years ended up weighing on him. Outside of Aaron Paul we also get several cameos from some of the shows best characters (none of whom I’ll reveal, but the IMDB castlisting could give some surprises away). When we first see some of them it is a bit disjointing given that some of them are 6 years older since we’ve last seen them, but honestly I got sucked into the scenes so quickly that I quickly forgot about how different they looked. Two of the returning characters are playing substantial roles in the film and end up stealing the scenes that they’re in. The other cameos are a lot more limited and some of them were probably just fit in when the actors just had a spare day in their schedule to film their scenes. But they all work well within the context of the film and they all provide some interesting reflections on the morality of the past few years of Jesse’s life. Though the one defining feature that is lacking which the original show excelled at is the character development which was always at its core. Whilst it does provide us with a little more closure for what happened to Jesse, he’s still the same person that he was at the end of the show and the film doesn’t really tell us anything we didn’t already know about him after watching him develop for the past 5 seasons. Also whilst the show does provide a more conclusive ending for Jesse, it doesn’t really offer us anything that beats those incredible seconds of relief and pure agony that the show originally left us on.

Ultimately the film is a victory lap for one of the greatest shows of all time. So if you’re somebody who’s never seen Breaking Bad, you’re probably not going to follow much of what’s going on here and I seriously recommend either buying the boxset or watching the series on Netflix since you’re missing out on some great television ever produced. But if you’re a Breaking Bad junkie who’s been jonesing for some more awesome moments, this film definitely delivers. And who knows, with so many great characters I’d be open to seeing some more spinoff films in the future. Maybe one day we might even learn whether Huell ever made it out of that room.

Whether or not this film was essential remains for everyone to decide themselves, but Jesse Pinkman being mostly overshadowed by Walter White, but now getting an epilogue just for himself, is kind of beautiful.

It's not really a stand-alone
Whether or not this film was essential remains for everyone to decide themselves, but Jesse Pinkman being mostly overshadowed by Walter White, but now getting an epilogue just for himself, is kind of beautiful.

It's not really a stand-alone film because you definitely have to have seen Breaking Bad in order to get the most out of this. And there are a handful of things to point out when it comes to flaws, like the semi stretched out story and the TV episode feel of this "movie", but I didn't feel like it was relevant at all to really nitpick all these things. It's all about Jesse letting go of the past completely and finding a new happiness.

Sure it takes a while to get going and the film relies heavily on flashbacks to give context, but it has its ways of creating tension to keep you interested, and eventually you're hit with the last 30 minutes that are definitely the best of the film, and I really really liked the ending. Say what you want or start a riot about whether or not this film has any reason to exist, but I sort of always imagined Jesse's story to eventually go this way. And Aaron Paul's awesome.

This whole thing just left a warm feeling inside my ice cold heart, even though I hadn't seen Breaking Bad for maybe five years. All the memories of this awesome story just came back in an instant. The ending to Breaking Bad was perfect, but this epilogue was nearly perfect for Breaking Bad aswell, so what difference does it really make in the end? Eat my a$$

As expected, Aaron Paul gives an outstanding performance. The rest of the performances from the other characters, including the many cameos, are all great as well and are on par with the main series. The film uses a lot of flashbacks to help remind you of what happened to Jesse and how it has affected his life now. They work well for the story and allow for some fan favourite characters to reappear. At the same time though, the movie also retreads a lot of story ideas already established first in the series, so in that way the movie did not offer up a lot of new surprises. A lot of what happens in the movie is pretty easy to predict, especially where Jesse ends up at the end. So in a way the movie felt unnecessary, but it is still nice to see Jesse's story definitively wrapped up nonetheless. Expand

On it's own El Camino is a nice supplement to the Breaking Bad Universe, but, saying goodbye to Jesse Pinkman right now is not anything significant when you weigh the overall 5 Season run. This film is nice send off to the character but there are way too many thoughts and actions of Jesse Pinkman that are way out of character - if you are expecting this to be delivered as a one last hurrah of the Breaking Bad family, you will be seriously disappointed. El Camino is to Breaking Bad as A Very Brady Renovation is to The Brady Bunch - although most of the cast are reunited, there's really no connection to their 5 Seasons of stories, besides a house. Before Breaking Bad sends Jesse on his way, there needs to be an enormous amount of investment in gap filling and character re-development before we get there. Expand

Aaron Paul slides back into a much more traumatized Jesse Pinkman's skin while making the differences in the character seem natural due to the events of Breaking Bad's last season. The film deals with the blatant aging of characters by simply doing nothing and i'm so glad that Vince Gilligan opted to not use digital de-aging as it would have made certain characters feel more out of place. All of the Breaking Bad cameos help further Jesse's story and do not feel forced or merely used for fan service, without going into any detail none of the cameos take away from the film although i wish they found an alternative for a certain bald cap used towards the end of the movie. El Camino truly is a fitting coda to Jesse Pinkman's character from the masterpiece pop culture tv show that was Breaking Bad and Aaron Paul's performance given throughout the film further solidifies everyone's belief that he is an outstanding actor worthy of an award for his portrayal of Pinkman.

This should be documented and even considered to be TRUE, no one can make up an epilogue as good as such, it has to be real.

El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie

So was there ever a doubt before going in on a Vince Gilligan project? Especially when and where he guides us into his Breaking Bad Universe. Not particularly. But I could not say even for a second that I was completely confident. It is not that I don't believe in his hard work and sincerity. It is just that Breaking Bad, similar to others, is near and dear to my heart. I am a bit sensitive on that subject. I was afraid more than I was speculative about this project. And it took a second act for Gilligan, although it should have taken only one, to convince me that this is a safe round. And I emphasize on that second act because I have never seen Gilligan so confident of his material.

That.. call it evolution or a calculated risk.. is what blows out every single fear of this epilogue. See, now the difference between the first and the second act is of course, Gilligan's change of perception of these characters. If the first act seems effortful- I only say effortful, for you can see him using all signature tactics of his like humor, playing with props, universal (physical) language tricks and witty solution to a simple problem, in order to keep the audience on their toes- the second is set free to change the tone as per wish.

This handover. This steering wheel that Gilligan so enticingly gifts to Aaron Paul is not only profoundly bold but also acceptable. It would make sense. It makes sense. Paul should take over that responsibility and choose. Ergo, there is this beautiful scene in the second act where Paul has to choose whether to kill someone or not. That entire scene. That entire act is pure performance. He shivers, he squeaks, he melts down and he chooses. Just as everyone chose to invest on making and experiencing El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie.

7 years after the ending of Breaking Bad, Vince Gilligan decided to make a movie to show what happened to Jessie Pinkman after he escaped his prison.

When i say after though, it really only applies to 60% of the movie, as there are quite a bit of flashbacks.

Jessie Pinkman, scarred and traumatized by his imprisonment, has to find a way to hide and run away. As a known partner to the greatest meth empire kingpin called Heisenberg, he has to find a way to start anew, and that requires money. Thus the thrilling escape begins.

While the scenes regarding present day events are immersive and get you on the edge of your seat, the flashbacks take away a lot of the tension. Characters are brought back in a rather contrived way, as their scenes don't change anything about the present day story. It also doesn't help that the original actors have aged or changed a lot, breaking immersion with the show a lot. Todd has suddenly gained a 100 pounds, and went from looking like a guy in his twenties to a fat middle aged guy. Bryan Cranston also makes an appearance, though his aging is too noticeable and his presence too forced and unnecessary. Why can't the movie stand on its own without having to use the characters from the show other than those who are truly integral to the story?

In the end, Jessie Pinkman finds his chance to start fresh and walk away from his tormented past. For years i wondered what would happen to him, and i'm glad El Camino wrapped up his story. Unfortunately, i feel like much of this movie is fan fiction considering all the unnecessary flashbacks. Hadn't these been forced in, it could have been a worthy sequel to Breaking Bad. Nonetheless, It is a good movie, i give it a 7/10.

I would say that this movie didn't really have to exist, we got a pretty good ending with Jesse in BB and it was mostly up to interpretation as to what would happen next. With this movie it doesn't take anything away from BB so that's good, but what I suggest is do not watch it straight after BB since the actors returning look much older in what was only supposed to be a few seconds after the show ended. Some haven't aged a bit, others it's pretty obvious. As a standalone, this movie has no bearing so don't listen to the creators saying it is. As a part of the show, I'd say it holds up if you can suspend your disbelief a bit to accept the actors are older and the main character of BB is gone and this is solely about Jesse. I feel what lacks is you don't get much of a rundown of who Jesse was in BB before all the crazy, heartbreaking stuff happened. So just watching the movie, you don't really feel the impact of why he is so broken, even if, like me, you gave the show a watch hours before the movie came out it's a little jarring, like if Aaron Paul isn't even playing Jesse Pinkman. However, a second time around, I was able to appreciate it a lot more and even change my score here from a 4 to a 7. I really didn't want this movie to pick up right where they left off in BB I think even letting a few years pass in the context of the show, you could still write a story about Jesse Pinkman running from the law as we see with BCS with Saul Goodman years later still constantly in danger of being caught. Still that was their decision and it does hinder the experience a bit but overall as a BB fan there is alot to like here. Watch it, it's a good bit of closure to Jesse Pinkman if you really weren't satisfied seeing him just drive off in the OG ending to BB. Expand

We are introduced to characters who were part of the original show. Some were memorable enough that you recall what they did and in those cases it plays well into El Camino's story. But a big emphasis is also put on lesser known characters that I couldn't remember at all. The movie does try to remind us slightly. But ultimately it wastes too much time trying to make us dislike them enough that we don't loose interest in the plot they are part of. And that's when things start falling slightly apart. I simply didn't care enough about it to keep me interested.
So basically it's a fan service movie more than anything else. It simply wraps up Jesse's story. And it does so fairly well.

Paul carries this safe, if solid, tale with a very fine assist from Robert Forester. Breaking Bad was nearly flawless for its first three seasons. While it never recovered from a serious misstep in season four, it still soared on occasion.Paul carries this safe, if solid, tale with a very fine assist from Robert Forester. Breaking Bad was nearly flawless for its first three seasons. While it never recovered from a serious misstep in season four, it still soared on occasion. While Paul shows every day of the six years that have passed, he lifts the proceedings enough to please the hard-core "Captain Cook" fans. Those not blind to the series' shortcomings, or unfamiliar with what all the fuss was about, will not be moved to go back and binge. The one flashback scene with Brian Cranston is all the reminder needed as to why Breaking Bad was so good, even when the story-line grew uneven. Expand

Une conclusion qui dure l'équivalent de 3 épisodes et met un point final à l'épopée Breaking Bad avec une certaine nostalgie et quelques clins d'oeil en prime.

Si certains détails chiffonnent dans le déroulement de la cavale du jeune Pinkman avec notamment un bon paquet de retours en arrière (il faut suivre), le rythme et la densité sont vraiment le point fort par rapport à la série qui se laissait aller à quelques lourdeurs pénibles.

Evidemment Aaron Paul est impeccable dans un role qu'il connaît par coeur et son personnage qui a acquis une expérience non négligeable (et formé à bon école avec le vieux White), s'avère particulièrement malin et tenace. Tout s'enchaîne ici en tout cas avec à-propos et quelques grands moments qui ont fait la réputation de la série mais ici condensés en deux heures véritablement passionnantes.

Un ultime baroud d'honneur qui vaut totalement le détour, de surcroît magnifiquement mis en scène, ce qui ne gâche rien !
