What if Breaking Bad were a movie?
For years since the show has ended, fans have been itching to get just a little bit more from the world of Walter White and co., and while Better Call Saul has been helping (a lot!), it's still incredibly difficult to follow up what is unarguably one of the greatest TV shows ever made.
While one of the greatest assets of the show was the slow, patient build we got to witness, as White went from struggling chemistry teacher to megalomaniac drug lord, but this is a very interesting exercise in seeing how a movie version of the same story might have played out.
Here's what the creator of the re-edit had to say: "
After two years of sleepless nights of endless editing, we bring you the answer to that very question. A study project that became an all-consuming passion. It’s not a fan-film, hitting the highlights of show in a home-made homage, but rather a re-imagining of the underlying concept itself, lending itself to full feature-length treatment. An alternative Breaking Bad, to be viewed with fresh eyes."
There's quite a few basic differences from the show - the timeline is mostly linear, there are LOADS of plot points missing (obviously), and the steady building dread is replaced by something closer to a hot-stepping thriller - but still, this is probably the closest we'll ever get to an actual Breaking Bad movie, so make the most of it!
