Jesse Pinkman flees from the police and tries to escape his inner turmoil.

Critics Consensus

Entertaining if not essential, El Camino adds a satisfying belated coda to the Breaking 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.

El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie is a great follow-up to one of the best TV shows ever made. It feels like a proper ending for Jesse Pinkman, giving his story the closure it deserved without losing the tense, gritty style that made Breaking Bad so memorable. What really works is how focused it is. The movie does not waste time, and every scene feels important. Aaron Paul is excellent, bringing so much emotion, pain, and desperation to Jesse’s journey. It is exciting, dramatic, and surprisingly emotional at the same time. Also, for some reason, it being from Sony Pictures Television makes it even funnier to think about, but the movie itself absolutely delivers. A strong, satisfying, and very worthy 9/10.

El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie was an okay watch overall. As a standalone film, it works reasonably well and provides closure to Jesse Pinkman’s story. However, when compared to Breaking Bad, it does not reach the same level of intensity or impact. The series set an exceptionally high standard, which makes the film feel less compelling in comparison.

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.
