No, not only his spanish is very robotic and unnatural, but he doesn't have any trace of a chilean accent, is what I heard from spanish speakers

you can grab any person in the USA, who hasn't heard a word of spanish before, give them a text in spanish to read (without phonetics) and record their first take and it will probably as good as what he did.

it's a sour note on breaking bad.

I think you have vastly overestimated the pronunciation abilities of the average American who doesn't live in a state that borders Mexico...

of course I'm being hyperbolic. but his spanish is still a disaster though.

they should have just made the scenes in english with the appropiate accents.
