I watched Breaking Bad religiously through the seasons over and over at one point. It's my favorite series next to The Wonder Years. I was a little late in watching this because of life stuff but now that I had time to sit down and watch it, I'm glad I did.
El Camino follows right after the events of Breaking Bad which I think is a mistake. Everyone aged by this point and I know it's obvious with Better Call Saul but it's more obvious here. When Jesse was screaming in his car at the end, his beard wasn't that long. Todd had noticeable gained weight and even Skinny Pete and Badger don't look the same anymore. I think this movie would have been even better if it picked up some years later and maybe have Jesse struggling with a new life instead. Also the flashbacks felt unneeded other than to deliver fan service.
I still enjoyed it but some aspects was a little distracting. One flashback had Jesse with a gun in front of Todd and it just seemed out of character that he didn't just shoot him. I get why because of continuity but why have the scene in the first place?
But hey, every Breaking Bad fan should check it out. I'm happy they made it.
