Ozymandias

Like a crystal meth user, watching Breaking Bad gives me the same mix of both euphoria and a feeling of intense despair.

I watched this episode over 2 hours ago, and I still feel sick.

Heart rate: Up. Respiration: Up. Trembling: Intense Fear and anxiety: Immense. Desperately waiting and counting the hours until the next fix.

I am hooked. I am ruined. I am destroyed.

I am bad...

As I have journeyed through the series of Breaking Bad, I have nervously watched as Walt fought cancer, cooked his meth, evaded the establishment, built his wealth, lost his wealth, built it again, dispatched his foes and always prevailed. His loyalty to Jesse always seemed to prevail.

Like me, did you find yourself moving away from Walt, and heading towards Jesse, and perhaps even Hank? I think I even felt a pang for Skyler.

And now? I still feel sick

"oh my god", "holy sh*t', "fu**kk". no i haven't lost it, those are my reactions every 5 minutes through this episode. all of us have been waiting eagerly for this episode to find out what will happen after that amazing ending of last week's episode. and boy what a show! i mean after this one i can truly say that BB IS the best show ever! everything is so perfect in this episode. multiple changing points in just one episode. and when you expect that the beginning of it is amazing and shocking.. wait till you see the rest of it! i mean wawww!! the best scenes of the show are in this episode, tension rising up so quickly that other shows might do a whole season just to produce the same level of tension and i mean it! so really no one have a damn clue what will happen next, really cant wait till next week! 10000/10.

An episode that cannot be measured by scores,That's all I can say.

The front cover for this season forcefully cries: 'Remember My Name' and 'Ozymandias' unquestionably made sure that this will stand as one of the best TV Shows of all time. This was without a doubt the best hour of television I have ever seen.

This episode is a drug, you will be experiencing; nausea, fear, sickness, disbelief, an overwhelming sorrow blooming inside the very core of your being. These symptoms will leave you paralyzed and unable to comprehend this hour of apocalyptic proportions.

Still shaking and pumped with adrenaline, I solemnly vow that I for one won't forget and will be remembering the name several years to come.

With "Ozymandias", Breaking Bad reaches its absolute apex, a gathering of all the worst things that could possibly happen for the series's main characters and the perfect analysis of Walter White's character. To me, this isn't merely the best episode of the series – these 45 minutes of utterly tragic intensity, having my heart continuously palpitate, are what I consider to be the best thing to be ever put on screen in any medium.

In a non-stop fashion, Looper's writer/director Rian Johnson shocks the audience with gut-wrenching, jaw-dropping, and unforgettable scenes, not leaving you any time to breathe deeply and not stopping to bother you after the ending credits roll. The screenwriters of this series have proved to be one of the most talented in their business over the course of almost five seasons up to that point and in "Ozymandias", they have all the accumulated problems ingeniously falling to pieces. In one way, it's torturing to watch all the worst case scenarios arise, but it's also fascinating because of how greatly made it is. The acting is a new career-best for virtually everyone involved and the departments that don't receive their due respect too often, such as the cinematography, the editing, or the incidental music contribute a major share to the phenomenal final good as well.

I'm completely stunned at how fantastic "Ozymandias" is and I can't think of any other episode of a TV series or any other film that emotionally affected me to the extent Vince Gilligan and his crew managed to do with this episode. Breaking Bad has had its weaker moments in previous seasons and may not be everyone's cup of tea, but with "Ozymandias", it suddenly becomes a must-see for anyone who gives anything about great film- or TV-series-making.
