Awesome. Operatic. Epic story of the torment of the soul, and the destruction of a man who unknowingly enters a world he cannot control. It quickly controls him and devastation ensues. A smart man with good intentions gets eaten alive by a world he never knew existed. It's the immortal tale of good versus evil and the depravity of man. Walter White is everyman. There but for the grace of God, go I. Every easy decision brings him further from his goal and closer to his destruction. It's the story of the fall of man, without the redemption that normally ties stories up with a nice bow. Gritty. Violent. Language. Sex. Nudity. It's all in there. It's all completely approriate to the story as well. This is a cautionary tale for modern man. Superbly acted, directed and produced. This is a classic that will be seen for generations.

Reviewing this with so few options to check is challenging. I'm about halfway through and certainly enjoying it enough to continue. The "discordance" is because there are some scenarios and scenes that are really plain stupid and/or unbelievably tedious while others are immensely gripping and insightful. It's almost at times as though there were two sets of writers and producers with different visions which somehow ended up being put together by a third entity who wasn't sure what to do with them and strung them together willy-nilly. Unless I have a complete change of heart when I've finished the series, it's not one I'll be hanging onto but will pass on to someone else.

As a true TV and movie buff, I can honestly say this is among the best, most unique series you will ever see. Worth seeing more than once. I had to purchase it to rewatch for the third time after growing bored during the pandemic. Vince Gilligan and his team are about the most talented writers of this generation. The only series that can compare in my 56 years of existence is “Better Call Saul”: the spin off of this series. A true classic that future generations will appreciate.

Captivating story telling, memorable characters portrayed by believable actors. Funny, moving, frightening, and suspenseful. Hats off to creator Vince Gilligan and his cast.

I originally watched this when they ran a two weekend marathon for the finale. I never knew it was even on TV. Guess my head was somewhere it didn't belong. I missed a few episodes and the final season was so good that I decided to buy the complete series. Now I can watch episodes at my own pace and not miss anything. It's really unfortunate that they didn't have another season. The writing and creative and intricate workings are incredible. The team of writers were beyond their years. Every single episode with Jesse and Walter left the mind wondering what was coming next. You'd think you had things figured out and Walters' wife would put a wrench in the plans. The person I really disliked was Walter's sister-in-law. What a witch. She definitely was a few cards short of a full deck. Get this set! You won't be disappointed. I Promise!!Read full review
