Well, hello there, kind folks. If you’re visiting this blog of mine, I presume that you have a certain interest in the cinema. As for me, even since my early childhood, I have had a deep love of everything related to movies and television. As far as I can remember, I have been more at ease in front of a screen than in the yard, outside, playing. It is a great way to travel, though other people’s stories, without having to foot any kind of steep bill. Over the years, I feel that movie-watching has even fuelled my own creativity.

All that being said, I welcome you in my Cinephile’s Nest. I hope you enjoy it here, feel free to come back at any time. Here you will find reviews of current movies and older ones. TV shows also. Some classics that have remained some of my favourites, some that have disappointed me. I will use a very basic star (*) system to grade them from 1 to 5 (5 being sliced bread level). Remember, these are just my tastes. I will try to explain in each review what I liked about these particular movies, without giving spoilers.

Il y aura aussi des critiques en français pour les films francophones, car j'aime également le cinéma dans ma langue maternelle. Avant d'apprendre l'anglais, plus jeune, je louais des tonnes de films traduits en français, surtout ceux de Bud Spencer et Terrence Hill. Ma mère a eu le choc de sa vie lorsqu'un jour, dans la boîte d'un de ces films, Deep Throat avait malencontreusement inséré. Une expérience formatrice pour le jeune cinéphile que je suis.

Bienvenue à tous, amusez-vous bien.

I welcome you all here, enjoy yourself.

El Camino (2019)

Genre: Thriller
Directed by: Vince Gilligan
Cast: Aaron Paul, Jesse Plemons, Charles Baker, Matt Jones
Running Time: 122 minutes



This film serves as an epilogue to the Breaking Bad series. The movie picks up where the last episode ends. Jesse Pinkman escapes the Neo-Nazi compound where he was held captive in an El Camino. As the authorities are trying to locate him, Jesse drives around trying to find the cash to finally buy that new life for himself.

Aaron Paul does an awesome job here carrying much of the load action-wise. He managed to really show on screen all of the layers of his character. Vince Gilligan also did great work as the director.

Overall, this was a very thrilling last farewell. I will miss these characters.
