Leave your thoughts about El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie.
| The AtlanticShirley LiThe film is a visceral, ruminative, and emotionally satisfying epilogue in which the broken Jesse reconciles with his past and searches for the hope and humanity he’d lost—or, rather, been denied by Walt. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperWhile it strikes a different visual tone and moves at a faster pace than many of the TV show episodes (as one might expect from a feature-length story), thanks to Gilligan’s masterful writing and directing, and the bold and powerful and layered performance from Aaron Paul, it’s an extended epilogue quite worthy of the “Breaking Bad” brand. |
| IndieWireSteve GreeneThat this film can stand on its own, all while paying tribute to the show that helped birth it, is maybe the most impressive escape act of them all. |
| Vanity FairSonia SaraiyaAaron Paul scintillates, once more, as his Breaking Bad character. |
| The VergeLiz Shannon MillerPaul already has a pile of awards acknowledging his acting talents, but his work in El Camino is staggering, given the high difficulty factor that comes with having to play so many variations of this character. |
| IGNDavid GriffinEl Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie is a tense, well-written story with a brilliant performance from Aaron Paul. |
| RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoThe result is a project that feels true to its source, a well-crafted epilogue for a beloved character who vividly understands the concept of consequences. |
| Film ThreatBradley GibsonFor fans of Breaking Bad, it’s a satisfying return to and continuation of the story. |
| The GuardianPaul MacInnesWhile it has both style and content, El Camino feels more like a feature-length TV episode than an actual movie. It is too compact and fragmented to truly stand on its own, and viewers who have not seen the preceding 62 hours of Breaking Bad will likely struggle to enjoy it. |
| Consequence of SoundMichael RoffmanConsidering he’s spent nine whole seasons within his quirky New Mexico universe, there was never any doubt that Gilligan loves his characters, but goddamn does El Camino bring that idea home. |
