So recently I acquired El Camino on DVD, the Jesse Pinkman epilogue of the amazingly good "Breaking Bad" TV series. I wasn't really sure on what to expect, but did think it was good to "do something" for closure on the series, on behalf of the Jesse Pinkman character, who always seemed to get-it-in-the-ass during the series.
So...What did you think of the film ?....Vote !!!
I thought it was pretty-good, & certainly not over-the-top, but had a natural progression from the fall-out of the Breaking Bad series. The only gripe is that they made Jesse seem a little wimpish imo, which was not necessary, as he'd already "grown-up" during the TV series, & come of age as a no-nonsence straight-shooter. But what-the-hey, we have to build something from nothing, right ?...
At the end-of-the-day, I give it 8/10...I reckon they could have done more with the story itself, & maybe they should have made it a couple-of-years-earlier too. But we got what we got, & it isn't bad at all :) !

I watched the entire Breaking Bad show back when it came out and thought it was really good! Many funny and relatable scenes in that movie and good chemistry between the cast!
Perhaps I will have to check out this El Camino!
