Skinny Pete's exact line to Jesse was "cause you're my hero and shit," so perfect. RIP Robert Forester 🙏
@@TheCrypticKnight lol I know that! I was just responding about the line that Skinny Pete said & then adding a RIP to Robert Forester at the end b/c I loved him. The 2 thoughts had nothing to do with one another, sorry if that wasn't clear 🤷♀️
I'm kinda disappointed cody didn't stand in the middle of the dessert with his tighty Walter whiteys
You and everyone else
😂
You’re kinda G A Y 😂 syke nah
No way dude!
😂
Any kind of twist like Jesse being Walt’s son or Walt being alive just gave me GOT Season 8 flashbacks.
When I saw Jane at the end I almost shed a year. She’s always been one of my favorite characters. And as bad as she got with the drugs I didn’t wanna see her go.
she was the worst
@@lancecowburn1693 she did kinda suck lol but she died badly
@@lancecowburn1693 fr she sucked
I didnt want her to die but since she relapsed, she was totally bad for Jesse. She woulda drove him straight to the gates of hell!
Dude, you are so good at these recaps/reviews. You have an incredible memory. I just watched this and couldnt retell it like you do.
He really doesn’t have a good memory, I notice he’s always saying things differently than they actually happened in a lot of his reviews. For example in this video he says that the disappearing guy told Jesse “alright you don’t wanna pay this? Then get out and don’t come in here again” when in reality he never said anything like that, he actually told Jesse that he needs to have the full amount of money since Jesse was just a little short on funds and told him to come back when he has the rest which is not the same thing lol
Whilst I didn't love the films, I gotta say it's dumb to criticise the changes in the actors. In theatre, they switch actors on a regular basis and people are complaining about some bald cap and weight gain, lol?
Honestly, I even prefer Todd being so much bigger, he's more intimidating and creepy this way.
Skinny Pete was the MVP. Skinny Pete and badger were true homies till the end for Jesse.
I enjoyed the movie and it's nice to see Jesse finally have peace after all the hell he's been put through because of Walt. I guess the only negative I have is that like Lori's comment below, I wish we could have gotten more scenes with Badger and Skinny Pete.
As far as scenes, I liked the shootout between Neil and Jesse (along with the welding shop explosion), the flashbacks (particularly the ones with Mike, Walt and Jane), the scenes with Robert Forster, the scenes with Badger and Skinny Pete and the scene with his parents where he tells them they did their best and the way he turned out wasn't their fault.
Another great review. Loved the movie, was fortunate enough to find a theater playing it, definitely prefer a theater experience. No, the movie wasn't necessary but what is? I had missed those characters badly and they were gone long enough for me to appreciate them even more.
I thought it was highly unnecessary but VERY well made. (Favorite shot is the overhead shot when Jessie is tossing the house)
Didn't notice Bryan Cranston's Bald Cap, Did notice Todd though. (Haven't seen the show in forever I just new he looked older though)
The bald cap was pretty good work. Although I will say it made him look quite heavier given that his head seemed fatty lol
I needed a news blurb on TV that Hanks body was found. And maybe have the El Camino go through the car wash.
I get why (its Jesses movie) but I was dissappointed we didn't get to see Skinny Petes interogation that was in the teaser. I wouldn't mind a Pete and Badger spinoff or seomthing 😅
I'm seeing and hearing about a lot of people thinking the "Wild West" standoff was lame and just silly. While I didn't find it to be up there with the most badass scenarios from Breaking Bad, I still thought it was pretty damn cool. Not sure what peoples gripes are, but then again people are bitching and moaning at some of the most trivial things from this movie so I guess I'm not surprised.
I’m glad you pointed out that though Walts bald cap looked a little off, why would he shave his head for a couple small scenes, and it didn’t take me out of the story at all. Also, I bet he didn’t shave his head mostly because then fans would be suspicious that he was working on something as Walt!
Yeah I agree Cody. I’m glad it was more small scale. This is just a more intimate character study of Jesse. No need for any huge events. Like u said it’s an epilogue for the series. One final journey for Jesse to complete his journey and very well done 👍
“Spoilers bitch!” XD
I felt that the callbacks added context and dimension to the story, especially Jessie's arc and his relationships with key people in his life.
His parents didn't just leave the house to see him. They were going to the lake with the police
I didn't even notice Walt's bald cap, hahaa. If it was that bad, they could've just stuck a hat on him. I thought it was fine.
Very thorough review. Well done.
I don't mind fat Todd. What bothered me most is when Jesse has Todd's gun from the glove compartment and just gives it up to Todd, when he mentions pizza and beer. He could've killed Todd and had all the pizza and beer he wanted. I don't think Pete aged very well, though. He looked a bit old for the character, now.
Thats why Skinny Pete had small scenes.
And the thing with Jesse & Todd?
*STOCKHOLM SYNDROME* yo.
Jesse was completely broken to the point whr he was an animal and he identified with his captor.
Todd held the leash.
Once u get that, u inderstand.
When you mentioned the badger and Skinny Pete conversations I cannot believe that you of all people forgot to bring up the convo of them debating Resident Evil 4 vs Left 4 dead 2.
Fantastic review and film. I think they gave Pinkman a great sendoff.. I loved the series finale but this was a great continuation and it was great seeing the actors from the show back, even if it was brief.
Awesome Reviews! I recently rewatched Breaking Bad and El Camino and loved your reviews alongside the show. Are you planning on making any for Better Call Saul as well?
Was Jesse jacket being on fire a little call back from the trunk on fire after the machine gun goes off or am I reaching
Could be
A huge reach
I've really enjoyed watching these reviews such that I went back to season 1 and am watching it all the way through. There's so many details that catch by watching again. So yeah great job
Man good review. I agree so much with the story of the film as an epilog and it was great. I love that it was grounded and straight to the point. I've enjoyed the movie more than better call saul so far.
After watching it a second time and thinking about it, the only thing I wish we would have got was more Skinny Pete and Badger. Specifically I would have liked 5 minutes on Badger dropping the car off and Pete getting arrested. We got the video of him in the first teaser, but I would have loved for the swat team to roll up and arrest him. But, can only do so much with two hours. Of course I would have loved to see a flashback with Saul and Huell, but they may be saving that for Better Call Saul. Overall I loved seeing the flashbacks of Jesse and Todd as well, it let us see what Jesse was up too while Walt was in Connecticut (or was it N. Hampshire? One of those cold ass states)
Edit: Oh, and I'm getting sick of seeing people bitch about seeing Skylar. She was a bitch. Unless it was watching her die who gives a shit.
Agreed about Skylar lol She was (For me) the worst character in the show. And mainly seemed like manufactured tension for the home life. (I think the actress did really good at making me love to hate her lol)
I don't think her or Walt Jr. held any relevance to the story in this movie. (So it would have been pointless to have them.)
I think it was fine they didn't show any of Skylar, because we got her in Walts prologue episodes at the end of the show.
Please rank the characters if you ever have time!!!
They should have put Tod in a gym..like losing weight should have been apart of the contract
Really great review thank you!!
I already watch it twice. Todd look did bug me a little the first time but on 2nd watch I was able to over look it a bit better. lol
I think as far as Todd goes fans should look at him as it is from Jesse’s memories. Jesse couldn’t think less of Todd as a human being and found him very creepy and odd. Under this idea, Jesse could have an inflated picture in his head of Todd because of his horrible experience with him. This is how I will look at it going forward to solve the issue. Same thing goes with Kaylee(Mike’s granddaughter in Better call Saul.) I like to think that all of his scenes with her are memories when he’s lying by the lake about to die from Walt’s gunshot. He doesn’t rem exactly how she looked or how old, he just remembers enjoying being around her.
Gettheledoutstyle yea that’s the biggest continuity error in the BB universe. She’s looks the same age in both shows.
I really loved it. A very satisfying ending for Jesse Pinkman. Yes, it is an epilogue. A very fine one. Cheers.
Is it weird that I didn’t notice the weight? I figured I was just viewing him as that game dev on black mirror. What’s weird is Todd behaves pretty similar to his character on that black mirror episode.
Cody awesome review! How would you like a 10 episode series of Jessie Pinkman and Saul Goodman combine?
Wouldn’t make any sense
Your right I agree; now that El Camino is here I don't wouldn't want to imagine Breaking Bad without it. I was very surprised Jesse called his parents and told them that they did there best and takes full responsibility about whatever happened to him; sad, touching and some nice "closure" with Jesses' folks. Also seeing Jesse and Walter White sitting at the buffet. .Yeah Bitch! That shit was awesome; good stuff. ☺️☺️☺️. Do you think there will be other Breaking Bad spinoffs?
Nope that was it- end of the 2010s!
If there was, it died in the *PANDEMIC!*
great review. thanks
Nice video 👍🏾
A lot of people like that overhead shot of him looking through Todd’s apartment. When u buy the el Camino vinyl and open the gatefold up u see that shot.
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage!
Badger sings praises of resident evil 4. You gotta love badger for that
They shouldn't have used the character of Todd as much as they did.
Adam i agree i would have been fine with like 10 mins of flashbacks with Todd.
Yeah so much that it turned comedic
I agree he was in like half the movie
Lol "final frontier" is NOT a Star Trek reference
I rewatched all of Breaking Bad so I could immediately slide into El Camino
Worth it.
It probably helped that I hadn't seen Breaking Bad in awhile, but I did notice Todd's paunch, and didn't think much of it. I was like "did he always have that belly? I don't remember. Oh well." Then went right back into the film. As for Walt, I didn't even notice the bald cap. It's just cool seeing him one last time, being who he is. All in all, great movie. Glad it's here, even though it didn't really make a difference in my life.
it was Chekov's guts lmao (probably mispelled it but wtf cares? Great review man!
Want to see it
The guns are a Colt Huntsman .22lr, and S&W safety hammerless .32 ACP, and these are his grandfather's gun
I personally enjoyed the slow pace of the film it had a lot of emotional depth great acting memorable scenes
The movie was prom night tight! I concur with everything you said Cody, except it being unnecessary. It was necessary, we fucking needed closure on Jesse. We got it with Walt and Saul but we only knew that Jesse was finally free . We needed more. Did he lose his gottdamn mind from the trauma? Did he get arrested? So many questions.
I actually really enjoyed this movie, but not as much I enjoyed the series, but it works as a great epilogue. I loved his growth in this film. He’s definitely looking for redemption but is willing to go as far as killing someone to do it. I loved all the cameos. Walt’s broke my heart, it was great to see Mike, but it didn’t have the same effect because of his work in Better Call Saul. Jane’s was sad too. Very brief.
The Todd thing didn’t bother me with his weight gain because of the guy’s performance. It was sadistic. It didn’t mess up the continuity to me at all.
The Mexican stand off felt a little out of place, but it worked well because it showed how far Jesse was willing to go. So it worked.
I really liked it and I want to rewatch Breaking Bad and watch this directly afterward. I’m also hoping to watch all of Better Call Saul someday with Breaking Bad.
Vince Gilligan is just a genius story teller. Always thought so because of X Files.
Subscriber request here: if you’ve watched X Files could you do reviews on the Vince Gilligan episodes of the series if you know them all? Just curious. :) lol I would think that’d be an interesting review series or ranking lol
The part when Todd takes off the belt from the corpse & puts it on and wears it was a big WTF moment for me!! The whole scene where they are at his apartment shows what a fucking psychopath this guy is!!
I don't remember that. Terrifying
I honestly loved El Camino!!
Fat Todd might've distracted me for a little bit but I honestly really liked it
Yeah I love the movie. Fat Todd didn't bother me as having other roles to play is understandable...bald cap Walt was too minor to care about...my only issue was I'd have liked it a little bit longer. Make it more of an epic.
But yeah cool movie! Good that it's like side content and that BB remains complete by its own measures!
I only saw thia movie the one time it was released. Im in agreement that it wasnt totally necessary, but i did enjoy it, and honestly, i think it deserves a re-watch
No one evwr answered the question about the gund lol what type of guns were they
It's been four and a half years Cody how many times have you seen El Camino?
3 times out of
18:10 Take that Spiderman Far From Home.
They should have had Todd in all black and kept his jacket on zipped up. When he took his jacket of I was like dam dudes chunky
Pinkyman: Why are you doing this yo?
Skinny Pete: You're my hero and shit!
Hey Cody i would love your thoughts on the fx classic show the shield?#MikeNice
I find it hilarious ppl are bothered by Todd's weight gain. I didn't really notice it until they did a full shot of himself with his jacket unzipped but even then I was into the performances so it didn't really bother me. But when Jesse told his parents they did their best kinda hit me and the standoff with Neil was good stuff as well him desperately searching through Todd's apartment. This movie served as a nice companion piece to the finale.
The movie was good but to ME it feelt pointless to make it. I didn't a 2 hour movie about what happend to Jesse after breaking bad. By the end of breaking bad I knew he would be ok, that his nightmare was over.
Halfway through october and cody is still focusing on breaking bad lol wheres the horror? Its the halloween season
jesse was with todd for 6 months right? Couldn't todd have put on and lost weight during that time before getting killed by jesse?
Dude seriously.
Mind at ease.
If you like Breaking Bad check out Mr. Inbetween. It's almost like the spiritual successor to BB. You won't be disappointed, I promise.
I found the weight gain distracting but tolerable
Manz went from skinny pee weight to hanks weight lol 😹. Jeez if ya doing a movie and getting paid at least lost sum weight 😂😂🤧 literally part of the character
Can you review jexi
me: hmm i wonder what this video is about.
cody: SPOILERS BITCH!
me: ok
I enjoyed the movie for the most part, but I only watched it once it’s not something I think I’d ever rewatch like I do with the actual series, I know I’m in the minority here but I’ll be honest I really didn’t give a shit if Jesse escaped or got a happy ending at the end of the series, I lost the rest of the respect I still had for him after he became a full blown snitch & screwed over Walt, so as much as I hate tod I can’t really blame him that much for treating Jesse like a “dog” or whatever after all his snitching, since as Gus would say “what kinda man talks to the dea? No man, no man at all”, also since I’m a firm believer that everything falling apart at the end was basically all Jesses fault too , if he never worked with Hank things would’ve ended up a lot better for everyone, I’m not saying everyone would’ve gotten a happy ending that way, but like Walt would’ve just had a hella dysfunctional family life until he eventually died, Hank would absolutely despise Walt but at least he’d still be alive, Jesse never would’ve been a tortured meth slave, & Brock wouldn’t have ended up as an orphan because of Jesses escape attempt, yee people like to say “Walts evil” for poisoning Brock, but honestly what’s worse for the kid, Spending a week in the icu from some poison berries (which lets be honest, Walt knew exactly how much to give him so the kid was probably never in any real danger), or waking up one morning to find out your now an orphan because your mom was randomly murdered in the middle of the night, ya know? So I think Jesse caused more damage to the kid than Walt ever did (plus Jesses also kinda responsible for Tomás death too),
I know Jesse was hella emotionally unstable by the end but I wish he wasn’t such an idiot sometimes & would see the big picture, like he had no endgame plans for working with Hank besides “get Walt”, like Hank was just straight up using Jesse as a very disposable tool, he didn’t give a single shit about Jesse & was just going to throw him in prison alongside Walt if he got his way, I mean thinking about it besides all the torture, the way Hank treated/used Jesse was basically the same as the skinheads, Hank was so hell bent on getting Walt that he was 100% cool with forcing Jesse into a potential trap to get murdered by Walt as long as it meant he could get Walt after (when Jesse thought the plaza meeting was a trap), like yee Walt would also use/manipulate Jesse sometimes too, but that was usually for both of their mutual benefits, plus he still loved Jesse like the son he never had & actually cared about him too
El Camino made me feel so much better about season 5. It was always so hard for me to watch. It’s so dark. And Jesse has a shit ending. But El Camino changed it for me 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hey guys! I also have a review for El Camino and also Breaking Bad. I'd love of you checked it out! Thanks!
You should do a Prison Break series review. That show was amazing, on par with Breaking Bad in my opinion.
I wouldnt agree at all honestly. I liked season 1 even though it felt drug out. Season 2 was probably the best season. After that...downhill
@@CodyLeachYT damn😔💔.
@@CodyLeachYT Cody would at least try to review Better Call Saul?
I totally agree with you peter, im on season 4 of prison break at the moment.....
@@DANE89 hell yeah! Scofield and Sucre are the best!
I noticed the Todd weight thing, too, but like you, it didn't bother me. What really bothered me, was the lack of Walt and the interaction between him and Jessie. I personally would've had more fun with the film had Walt lived and maybe been in prison, and maybe Jessie had to break him out for some reason, etc. Also, when Jessie gets rid of his parents, he's also getting rid of all the cops watching their place. You didn't mention that, but I'm sure you noticed all the cars pulling away, haha. I also think it would've been nice to get a scene where the Grey Matter people (I forget their names) take the money to Skylar, etc. Get a little closure to that storyline. Maybe the next movie, haha.
Maybe Todd gained weight during Jesse's imprisonment and lost it for Julia
Could I make a video request please
Todd was bloated AF in this movie it was very distracting lol I don’t want to sound mean but breaking Bad is a 10/10 series if your coming back to play yourself from 8 or so years ago drop 20/30 lbs for the sake of the movie that will forever be on Netflix once the movies over to back to however he eats. Anywho I felt this needed to be at least a 6 episodes series. Jesses character deserves that much. I felt the movie was a bit to short
He is still an active actor. I wonder if he didn’t bother because he had other roles where he didn’t need to lose the weight
Lol omg u just said it's not worth a couple hundred thousand to shave your head. XD
All jesse had to do is get a new identity the f8rst time around, for real
Yeah but he wanted to take down Walt
@@CodyLeachYT yeah, but it wouldn't've fixed anything, if he knew better he'd let it go and leave with his money but he s gone to the police and threw all his money away(not like they'll let him keep it anyway after ratting) , he didn't think that over for even a second, just because of him Hank died, Walter died with his whole family hating him, Andrea died, leaving a still alive Brock motherless, and jesse gets tortured for months on end,and that is not even counting other casualities that he didn't know personally, wanna talk about ego, Jessie's was the one that really sealed the bad deal, and I won't lie, seeing him suffer at the end, I found that deserved, he brought it on himself, hell maybe should have died rith there and then. All this time blaming walter for ruining his life as a nobody junkie deemed to die young on the street, and the second he acts on his own he ends up fucking things up way worse. Not making a caspe for White bring blameless but JUST because Jessie has one rule to never harm kids that doesn't mean he didn't indirectly did so anyway, and he's aware of it yet choosing to pop the cap the instant something comes up acting all mighty.
@@guotyr2502 ^This, had Jesse just let things go it would have been great. I like how he throws his millions in "blood money" away but has zero compunction about the shootout, stealing Todd's "blood money", etc. Jesse isn't a hero or even a good person. I never once recollect rooting for him. He just messed everything up, and made it all for (mostly) naught.
For a standalone movie, I think it was poorly written. The flashbacks took all the pace out of this movie. I really wanted to see how Jesse's story continued and the flashbacks took me out of it. I continuously looked at the playtime and how much time was left hoping Jesse's story was still a lot to tell. But with every flashback, it took another 10 or 15 minutes of the present story timeline.
But if you look at this movie as a forgotten episode or two, it was great and highly entertaining. I want to add that I'm fully aware this movie was not meant to be a feature film ride like we are used to. Like you said, this is not for everyone.
I´m a huge fan of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, but this film was very disappointing. The visuals were amazing and Aaron Paul nailed it again but not only the movie was totally unnecessary, but it was pure fanservice. My biggest issue is the Jane flashback and Jesee´s smile in the end. It´s not fitting. Let´s bear in mind BB and BCS are about people´s lives turning into tragedies. Yes, Jesse is free but he´s gonna hide and live alone for the rest of his life, just like Saul. So, this happy ending smile just does not add up. In the end, this is the first time I felt Gilligan is pushing it too hard. Felina was the perfect ending for all the characters and El Camino did not offer anything we could´ve not imagined it ourselves regarding Jesse´s future. Not to mention Todd´s flashback, forced and fucking eternal. El Camino had fine cameos, great visuals and a great performance by Paul but no substance at all. The writing, the pace and the directing were really off. This film was purely built on nostalgia, which is not proper if you really wanna make a compelling movie that pays homage to one of the best series ever, if not the best.
Yeah Jessie being content about getting to ride off into the sunset completely breaks the tone of the series unlike Walt being content about beating his enemies and getting to die on his own terms. Also the Todd flashbacks have an actual point and give context to Jessie's actions. And "no substance"? Yeah cause it's not like the film bothers to give the protagonist an arc of regaining his confidence and coming to terms with his own culpability in the decisions he made throughout the series while working to try making a future for himself. Yep the film isn't about anything at all.
@@thomaslynch5313 Yep. You just repeated all I had already said. By the way, given the length of your message, you really have a lot of spare time, do you?
@@mateoairaudo5535 I repeated what you said about the Todd flashbacks being pointless by...proving they had a point? Okay. Also yeah I have at least an hour to spare when I'm home at night. Just like you have time to reply to me. Funny how that works.
@@mateoairaudo5535 Also fuck it I might as well have an extra laugh. I do find it funny you tried having a dig at the length of my comment when it's actually shorter than the one you made originally.
@@thomaslynch5313 The difference is that I posted that comment a year and a half ago and now I barely remember that movie (that is how much I care about it now).
