BREAKING BAD Season 5 Teaser - Ozymandias

TrailerTV Breaking Bad by Joey Paur

Breaking Bad's glorious return is only a few weeks away! AMC has released a new promo trailer for the final episodes of the series. The trailer is called "Ozymandias," and it gives us an idea of what's going on in Walt's head. 

The first episode of the next installment of the final season has been screened for some press, and this is what they are saying:

Don't worry, these are Spoiler Free.

NY Daily News: "If this first episode foreshadows the other seven, much of the drama will be psychological. While Bryan Cranston’s Walter White tries to ignore the toll of his chosen course on those around him, the wreckage has begun piling up...the first episode offers few clues about what form justice will eventually take, if it takes any form at all."

Hollywood Reporter: "... the return episode is riveting from start to finish -- with the use of another flash-forward that also kicked off this final season -- and it concludes with an extended scene that is written, acted and shot with the kind of magnificence that is at the heart of why the series is so exalted."

The Wrap: "...nothing I could put into sentences would deliver the crackling euphoria the show creates with each jittery montage, wincing fight, scream-at-the-screen flashforward. 'Breaking Bad' tells its story better than anyone else could."

Sun Sentinel: "Indeed, to the show's credit, the Jesse arc might be every bit as fascinating as Walt's is—or, for that matter, Hank's appears destined to be. And while Gilligan and company have occasionally taken their time to meander on oddities, betraying the showrunner's quirky sensibilities, this tautly paced episode suggests it's going to be more of a sprint toward the finish line, with barely an ounce of fat on it."

Variety: "And while the first of these remaining hours does little to suggest whether the wrap-up will ultimately prove worthy of the journey, it’s breathtaking stuff, providing tour-de-force moments for the key characters. Continuing to tease the outcome with out-of-context glimpses of future events, there’s no telling where “Bad” will wind up. But if this first hit is any indication, the audience is in very good hands."

The show returns to AMC on August 11th!
