Better Call Saul Series review

Even though I liked Breaking Bad very much, I couldn't give up time to watch Better Call Saul after I completed watching BB, because I thought the story line will be similar and its spin off and most spin offs ruin the experience of original. Now I have watched Better Call Saul till Season 5( Finale season 6 is likely to get released on 2021), I can say I was wrong and Better Call Saul is truly a great series.

Initially season 1 didn't feel great for me, it was slow but I kept watching because I had a good feeling that it will be great because Vince Gilligan style is slow burn and it was slow in Breaking Bad and how it turned out at the end was amazing and likewise Better Call Saul too started to get better in season 2 and way better in season 3. I felt a little drag in season 4 but the last two episodes kicked off the twists in plot. Season 5 started as little usual and then boom, it turned out the best and now I can't wait for the Season 6 which is also a finale planned to with 13 episodes.

I have to say, the writing was meticulous and impeccable. Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould both nailed off the script. I was able to see the same style of writing. I was also able to noticed the camera angles and it was perfect and artistic. I don't know how he creates script like this. It all seemed like natural and I never felt it as fiction and they perfectly very well connected with Breaking Bad.

Coming to the acting, Saul Goodman aka Jimmy McGill, Mike, Gus Fring and Hector were amazing as usual. Apart from them, the new bunch Kim, Howard, Chuck and Lalo really pulled a great performance. I could definitely say they are wise choices and that's what it amazes me that how Vince Gilligan is so perfect in terms of creation and cast. Of course, its team effort but pulling off a great series with so many character is way more difficult than it usually seems.  He is real genius and hope he makes the good ends in finale.
