I enjoyed it quite a bit. Scene by scene, there is a lot of really great interaction. I particularly like the deep dive into Todd, the new age sensitive guy who sings along to soft rock and has a pastel painted apartment, and is also a completely psychopathic murderer. But all the interactions with the vaguely remembered side characters from Breaking Bad are pretty great- the vacuum cleaner store, the welding shop, and there is the brief but nostalgic flashback with Walter White himself.

The scenery is great as always, the camera work, the very fine performance by Jessie silently embodying the depth of his losses.

For all that, it's a pretty minor coda to the Breaking Bad saga, nothing revealing, nothing that changes anything, nothing that really extends the story arc in any significant way. Not greatly memorable. But good.
