They made him a respectable villain. He wasn’t stupid or reckless. He was just as smart if not smarter than Walt. Too many shows/movies make there villain have some dumb flaw. Gus was as cold and calculated as they come. He and Walt were playing chess and ultimately Walt won because Gus didn’t expect Walt to play the Cartel angle. Even when he died he straightened his tie like a boss before he accepted death.

The other thing is that Hank is a fantastic depiction of PTSD after the Tuco and the turtle incidents and depression also after being nearly paralyzed by the Salamanca twins.

Gus's character makes you wonder about how many businesses are actually covers for organized crime. Gus is the exemplification of the corporate criminal. Evil with a smile.

Sopranos deserves SO MUCH credit for really being the show that kicked off all these dramas centered around fully-realized, villainous-yet-somehow-still-relatable protagonists. That being said, the show is definitely a bit more inconsistent than Breaking Bad. I've grown to LOVE the finale, but I can definitely understand how some people hated Sopranos finale who wanted non-ambiguous wrap up. Still, the show laid the foundation for things like Breaking Bad so you gotta respect it.

Great review, but Hank was definitely going through PTSD and depression after watching a bunch of officers get blown to shit right in front of him, and only escaping death from that himself due to chance. That really shook him up, and his weakness in response to it caused him to question his masculinity, which was like his primary characteristic. He literally tells his wife "Im not the man I thought I was". But in the end, Hank is the only main character who sticks 100% to his core values, and as a reward, he gets one in the head. I hated him too, but overall he was a very complex and interesting character.

The moment I really respected him was after he beats Jesse, when he refused to spin the story as self defense, opting instead to accept whatever the repercussions would be.

Exploding Lamps No. The fly episode was a 45 minute waste of time. Yes Walter feels guilty for his actions, but the fly is symbolic for him losing control in which is what he wanted all along.

Fly is not the only episode where you get to immerse yourself in one place. The other episode is in fact, my favorite episode in the series, Season 2's "4 Days Out". It's the one where Jesse and Walt have to cook in the RV for 4 days straight to make one huge haul. It takes place pretty much fully in the RV and the surrounding wilderness and it's such an important character development episode for both Walt and Jesse, as well as their budding relationship.

El Camino almost feels like a fanfic, or something produced by other people than the original crew. Which is ironic since it's mostly the same and indeed was written / directed by Vince himself. But that goes to show you that, as he himself admits sometimes, the show's success depended on much more than his own genius. There were many things they honestly could have done way better and I choose to look at El Camino as a separate and unnecessary entity they gave the hardcore fans to have fun with if they wanted.
@UncreativeShadi5 жыл бұрын
The Fly is my favourite for completely different reasons. It is a microcosm of the series' pivotal relationship. It also is very comtemplative episode, as the fly represents Walter's guilt over how his life is spiralling out of control,al and the hurt he had caused for everyone else, especially Jesse. With my favourite part of the episode being how at the end of the monologue, he realizes how he cannot contain the damage of his actions and says to give up on the fly and says "It's all contaminated". Meaning his he can't revert to his peacefull life and that there will even more victims of him breaking bad.

Hank was a depiction of PTSD. It doesn't absolve him of all his actions but many of his traumatic breaking points came as a result of Walt's criminal activities. His life was constantly at risk. He watched his coworkers get literally blown into pieces. It's easy to get frustrated by his rage but by the point in the show he's out of control he's barely sane. By the end of the show he gets his shit together and him and Marie redeem themselves in a big way. His story is almost a redemption arc.
@1000000man15 жыл бұрын
I think it started with him killing Tucco. Even though he did what he had to, It tore him apart and everyone kept calling him a hero, which made him feel worse.
