Netflix’s El Camino release plagued with technical errors as Breaking Bad movie fails to load on streaming service
EL CAMINO: A Breaking Bad Movie has officially hit Netflix, but not everyone has been able to access it.
Hype for the streaming service’s film has been steadily building in recent weeks, but technical difficulties around the release date have left many up in arms on social media.
The UK and Ireland account for Netflix announced on Twitter: “El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie (!!!) is now streaming.”
Unfortunately within minutes the post was flooded with complaints as exapersated viewers revealed the film wasn’t showing up on their dashboards.
“It’s not on mine,” one user wrote, while another asked: “Am I the only person who it's not appearing for then yeah?”
A third chimed in: “Nope, nothing here,” alongside an angry emoji.
“No it’s not, what’s going on?!” a fourth fumed.
Addressing the backlash, Netflix replied: “If you can't see it yet, log out and in again. Yeah science.”
Unfortunately, the words of encouragement fell on deaf ears, as users replied that the proposed solution wasn’t working.
“No, still nothing!” one user snapped back, with another agreeing: “Tried that, still not seeing it.”

However, there were some who claimed the fix had worked for them, buzzing with excitement at the prospect of diving into the flick.
What’s more, given the number of joyful tweets elsewhere from fans who had started watching the film, it’s safe to say the issue wasn’t affecting the majority of Netflix subscribers.
Many Breaking Bad enthusiasts are no doubt nursing their wounds after show bosses confirmed that Walter White was indisputably dead.
The statement came amid mass fan speculation that the character may have somehow survived the shooting from the show’s finale episode.
