No. I couldn't stand the Jesse Pinkman character during the show. I'm not watching a standalone movie about him.

I read it's not a flashback, but like right after Jesse escaped at the end BB.

Okay, just finished. The movie is fine. It doesn't really add much more to the story. It confirms one thing from the show that people thought was ambiguous (I thought it was pretty clear in the show, but the movie states it explicitly).

In the very last episode of Breaking Bad, Walt dies. But some people, at the time, speculated that it's possible he didn't. The movie explicitly states he did.

Yeah, no they're definitely wrong.

In any case, I enjoyed it mostly. It really just felt like an extension of the original show. It wasn't really needed but I'm glad I watched it.

That said, I'm not sure I understand the ridiculous manhunt for Jesse. Maybe I wasn't paying attention, but do they think he killed Hank/Gomie? By this point, he would've been missing for months. Why would they be looking for him?

Moreover, why wouldn't Marie/Skyler vouch for him and say, nah he was trying to help dawg

Indeed but the actual film isn't a flashback.

I heard there was quite a few flashbacks, one with walt, one with his girlfriend, some when he was inprinsoned/tortured etc. I believe my favorite character (The security guard guy, forget his name) is in a flashback as well. I may watch it sometime, but from what I heard there is no reason to resub netflix just to see it.

I think it's because he was the only known living person connected to the biggest known meth operation/bust in US history. He wasn't necessarily in trouble (he probably would've been though, IMO since he killed people), the authorities had questions for him about what went down and if there were any possible connections still out there. Jesse didn't want to deal with all of that

Mike? You should watch Better Call Saul, he's one of the main characters in that.

I thought the movie was pretty good, like watching an extended finale to the TV show. Pinkman was one of the least likable people in the show, but towards the end you couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

It's not necessary, but I enjoyed it.

Also, I may be weird, but Jesse was one of the only characters I didn't absolutely hate at the end of Breaking Bad.

You should probably fix your quote to block out the spoilers from my post. I thought quoting did that automatically but I guess not.

Anyway, that could be the case but I feel like that's kind of out of character for Jesse by the end of the show. Especially since he had been a prisoner for months by that point. It would be pretty easy to say, "Yeah these guys imprisoned me to force me to cook meth". I don't think he would have been that badly off had he done that. He could have shown them where Hank/Gomie were killed and I believe buried. He could have given them all the details he knew about the cartel and what not. Otherwise, I don't think they had any direct evidence that would incriminate him other than his story. That seems to me a better alternative than being on the run for the rest of your life.

I'm not particularly upset about it. But I would have liked to see Jesse go 'straight'.

Skyler already had that info. Walt gave her the lotto ticket with the coordinates and told her to use it to make a deal with the prosecutor in the final episode. Though Jessie wouldn't know that immediately, the news would have probably reported it after Skyler made the deal.

Ah, you're right. I totally forgot about that. I need to go back and rewatch the last couple of episodes.
