White is one of the great characters of recent memory. He dominates the story of Breaking Bad like few characters. Pinkman doesn’t carry this story in quite the same way.

| Original Score: C | May 10, 2024

Fans of Breaking Bad will be delighted with El Camino, which not only adds to the world of the show – but as a love letter to Jesse Pinkman, even manages to improve upon an ending many thought couldn’t be beaten.

| Original Score: 9/10 | Apr 16, 2023

A fun ride. A showcase for Aaron Paul.

| Oct 28, 2022

While El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie is moderately enjoyable escapism, it’s ultimately an indulgence that’s an extension of its series finale and may only offer a sense of closure for the creators involved rather than its fans.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 20, 2022

This is less a traditional road movie than the tale of one man's frustrated attempt to hit the road, all helped enormously by the enigmatic intensity of Paul's performance.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 30, 2022

Perfectly enjoyable...

| Jul 28, 2021

El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie is a worthy edition in the Breaking Bad canon. It takes forward the story of a character who was the moral centre of the show - or at least one who passed for one - and completes his arc in a satisfying way.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 9, 2021

Even if it didn't necessarily need to exist, Breaking Bad may end up being enhanced by this in ways nobody ever expected.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 16, 2021

Like slipping on a pair of worn and comfortable shoes, Vince Gilligan and Aaron Paul make a thrilling and confident return to the world they left behind six years ago.

| Original Score: B+ | Jan 29, 2021

For those who loved the story and the characters of Breaking Bad, El Camino is not only an epilogue of the series but also a prequel to the last episode of the show.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 20, 2020

El Camino is a good 2-hour episode of Breaking Bad . It works perfectly as an epilogue (in every sense of the word) to Jesse's dramatic arc and at no point does it clash with the canon from which it emerges.[Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 5/5 | Aug 23, 2020

A solid if unnecessary epilogue showing fans what happened to Pinkman after we last saw him drive away to freedom after being saved by Walt's blaze of glory.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 24, 2020

While El Camino doesn't hurt Breaking Bad's legacy, it doesn't enhance it either. It does, however, fulfill its purpose as fan service -- as you get to see some familiar faces, some tense drama and some gorgeous visuals once again.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 24, 2020

I never thought we needed to return to this world or meet up with these characters again, but I'm sure glad that we did.

| Original Score: B+ | Jul 8, 2020

Rather than offering new insights into Breaking Bad's excellent story, El Camino reinforces the show's best traits and proves to be a necessary epilogue.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 6, 2020

It was a fantastic way to say goodbye to the series and tie up the bigger loose ends. Beyond that, I don't think there's much value for any non-Breaking Bad fans to tune in.

| Feb 26, 2020

If you enjoyed the original series and respect Gilligan's commitment to giving Jesse a send off, you'll probably get a lot out of this extra two hours of screen time.

| Original Score: B | Dec 17, 2019

Suspenseful, funny, emotional and endlessly surprising, El Camino reminds us why we love Breaking Bad.

| Dec 10, 2019

There's nothing about El Camino that is essential; while it won't tarnish your memories of the original series, it won't reframe or enhance them, either. It's a nice ride with some old friends. Sometimes, that's just enough.

| Dec 6, 2019

For fans of the show who know these characters, that's a welcome conclusion for a story we didn't even know we missed until Vince Gilligan showed it to us.
