This is the best AMC show for me. While Breaking Bad had all the drama and acting, the action and storylines of Into the Badlands are much more my style. I built up a lot of hype for this show and it more than exceeded my expectations. While all of you have seen the show (at least once - I will watch this again) I want to comment more on the ending of this episode.

I initially thought it was cheesy to have Disturbed's cover of "Sound of Silence" play at the end with some wannabe epic ending but the scene really grew on me as it went on; now I have watched this scene at least 10 times in the last 24 hours. The timing of some of the lyrics/music, particularly when Pilgrim signals to slice their lips, just fit perfectly. It even brought out emotions from myself which is rare. The scene elevated the song, while the song elevated the emotional ending of this episode (as if we needed more after discovering Sunny's sister!) - a beautiful combination. In my opinion, the momentum shift in the season can really be felt in this episode while the ending is the cherry.

This is the worst piece of television I've seen in a long time, but they are justifiably offed to end it by the legend Trejo.

Don't watch this with huge expectations, it's a Netflix movie. Though I think it's one of their better ones.

As a formal festival goer I enjoyed this movie for what it is and I believe it's accurate of the culture. Bonus points for having Galantis songs, especially PBJ.

My biggest gripe is they should have capitalized on Shaw's first and second sets instead of glossing over them as if they weren't major points in the movie. There's other small holes throughout but nothing major.

Overall an enjoyable movie if you are, or were, into EDM
