Count I @Locutus 5d Nice to get closure on Jesse’s story and an expansion on his story. It was going to struggle to keep the insane quality of the story line though and therefore that’s why it isn’t 5 stars for me. See more Alex J @RT51904888 Aug 7 What a disappointing follow up to the greatest piece of art ever made. Gilligan et al misunderstand the story they told, apparently, as Jesse’s story does not need a conclusion. He was not the main character of BB, and the end of his arc neither serves the story or our appetite. The best compliment I can pay this is “forgettable.” See more Charles S @RT56165336 Aug 2 I like how people don't care his character shot an innocent man in the face and pity Jesse. They also think you won't notice the one dude gained like 50 fucking pounds, which I guess is pretty funny. The rest is just boring bullshit. See more Frans B @FransB Jun 26 Brilliant! Vince Gilligan did good with this one. We needed this in the Breaking Bad universe. Aaron Paul shines convincingly in character (as always), Jonathan Banks brings the calm, cold, hard, eerrrmm, vibe? and rest of cast all excels in character. Intelligently written and amazing cinematography. All the action, suspense, drama, real life grit feel, emotion, intrigue and twists. Very entertaining, gripping and memorable See more Faiz S @RT19049740 May 26 The best part is when you realise that this movie is less about action and more about emotional escape. This film feels like silence after storm. Instead of another rise to power story it shows the psychological weight of survival. The cinematography quitely mirrors loneliness with empty roads and cold rooms. The movie avoids glorifying crime unlike many gangster stories. It's not the loudest ending, but probably the most loudest one. See more Aye E @RT43717499 May 18 This movie was a so-so revisit of BB following the ending where one might wonder about how Jessie would move on. It lead with the logistics of how he would do it, with violence, grit, and and bit of ingenuity. Which I guess was how the show portrayed things as well. But my mind went further down the road, what would his life be like when he was older, but guess that's not compelling entertainment. Although all of the actors were clearly older, which made it hard to feel like we were slipping back in time. Pinkman should've been pretty emaciated after the imprisonment, and he looked far too healthy, as did several others compared to how they looked on the original series. But there was never a sense of any real danger even in the most tense moments, he was clearly going to escape and all the tension of the show was gone when you knew that all of the key players were gone. This felt very much like a sidekick dealing with other sidekicks. See more Read all reviews
