good filmmaking

Warning: Spoilers
Walter is dead. Jesse is on the run after escaping from the Brotherhood. He steals Todd's El Camino. This is a direct sequel to the finish of the TV show with many flashbacks. Those flashbacks are more or less fan service to bring back familiar characters. The ending is not really in doubt. Getting there has a couple of fun Breaking Bad scenes. The fridge and the vacuum are classic Breaking Bad. The style and the filmmaking is a continuation of the TV show. The story however has limited tension. While each individual turn may be unpredictable, the direction and the final target is very much. This may not be a truly necessity of the franchise. It adds very little to the story. It's not expanding the universe. It's more tying up a few loose threads which aren't begging to be tied down.
