El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Entertaining if not essential,El Camino adds a satisfying belated coda to theBreaking Bad story -- led by a career-best performance from Aaron Paul.

There's nothing about El Camino that is essential; while it won't tarnish your memories of the original series, it won't reframe or enhance them, either. It's a nice ride with some old friends. Sometimes, that's just enough.

For fans of the show who know these characters, that's a welcome conclusion for a story we didn't even know we missed until Vince Gilligan showed it to us.

It's really well shot, really well acted, and it's constantly engaging.

White is one of the great characters of recent memory. He dominates the story of Breaking Bad like few characters. Pinkman doesn’t carry this story in quite the same way.

9/10

Fans of Breaking Bad will be delighted with El Camino, which not only adds to the world of the show – but as a love letter to Jesse Pinkman, even manages to improve upon an ending many thought couldn’t be beaten.

A fun ride. A showcase for Aaron Paul.

Great ending for pikman

Interesante de ver después de terminar la serie de Breaking Bad (asumo que quienes la vieron en el 2019 estaban perdidos), pero nada del otro mundo. Permite ver como Jesse por fin lograr estar en paz, lo cual es lindo.

Just finished BB and loved it! Was recommended ElCamino by friends but it really underwhelmed.The truly wild piece of cinema which Jesse’s crazed laughter as he escaped in the el Camino promised was usurped by this drab and slow moving revisiting of old relationships which didn’t offer any new developments or uncover new motivations. Sub par handling of time frames, ordinary soundtrack and poor pacing were on display and the sometimes excellent photography and believable dialogue did not make up for an unimaginative treatment of a story that should have been able to stand up on it’s own merits rather than just prop up The Breaking Bad brand.Disappointing but I am looking forward to seeing better call Saul. 🙏

An excellent epilogue to Jesse's story.Rating: 7.9/10

I loved that they did separate add ons of just Jessie’s life from breaking bad. I feel so bad for Jessie. He went through so much and it honestly broke my heart.. I’m glad he got his happy ending even if he was alone..

Ignore this movie and Breaking bad is perfect. Even better call saul. This movie is extremly bad and does more harm to the universe of BB.
