El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie

Lenny Kravitz knew best ... Music reference aside, this movie continues from where Breaking Bad left us. So suffice to say that this was made for fans of the show. And I will assume that you have seen the TV show, therefor do not read on, if you haven't.

The very last episode of Breaking Bad seemed to round things up. Almost all loose ends were tight up. Especially when it came to Walter White. And what was Breaking Bad if not a show about a teacher who became this bigger than life villain? Well Aaron Paul had something to say about that. And since his character had something to offer us still ... the creator of Breaking Bad felt he could satisfy the need from fans to have more.

And for fans the movie is filled with little pieces of callbacks and nice references. Not to mention some flashbacks with some of our favorite characters (to hate). So yes I do understand if some feel this undermines the end of the actual TV show, but that would be missing the bigger picture (no pun intended). Yes there was not an absolute need for this movie, but what it does is expanding on the ending and giving us something that transcends the TV show and may even elevate it - not to mention get many people to rewatch the original series ... even more so than Better call Saul made them do it (a show I haven't watched yet) ...
