1. The Extremely Satisfying Ending

Again no spoilers here, but it's tough to imagine many fans not being satisfied with how El Camino wraps things up.

If some felt that Breaking Bad's ending for Walter White was a little too generous to him, El Camino arrives at a less-theatrical conclusion which fits the tone of the entire movie like a glove.

As we've said, those going in expecting Felina Part 2 will probably be underwhelmed by how simple it all is, but Gilligan isn't just trying to shock and surprise fans with random twists purely for the sake of it.

For those who wondered what happens to Jesse after he drove off screaming into the night - that is, all of us - El Camino provides richly compelling answers.
