EL CAMINO: A BREAKING BAD MOVIE
Netflix, 3:00 a.m. ET
MOVIE PREMIERE: Vince Gilligan both writes and directs this latest entry in the Breaking Bad franchise, which picks up exactly where we last saw Aaron Paul’s Jesse Pinkman at the end of that superb AMC series. Now we get the next chapter in Jesse’s saga, as well as a flashback or two, all of which ends up being a wonderful new part of the canon, and provides several opportunities to re-encounter old characters and players. To say more would be wrong, but trust me: El Camino is every bit as satisfying as Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.
