  • Best watch in some time

    I love a good movie especially when I have no expectations. I sat down with my kids and was just so surprised by how good this movie really was. I don't write reviews, but felt I simply had to for this one. It was pure entertainment from start to finish wonderfully funny and just restored a little bit of faith in the guild of acting and humanity. If you are in the mood for an up beat feel good movie with a lot of laughs this is a pleasantly easy watch, that the whole family can enjoy. Well done and thank you.

  • How do u comeback from continuous bad Adam Sandler movies? By making The Fundamentals Of Caring.

    marash23152016-06-25

    First let me say that I don't write reviews on IMDb often but after watching this movie and seeing how little reviews it has I had to write one. Just so that if there is any other soul looking here all confused if he/she should watch this movie or not. WATCH IT. JUST GO WATCH IT. Alright, so plot wise it doesn't have lot of characters who just pop in and out. It has a very simple story with simple cast doing simple things and that's the beauty of it. There is no over the top emotional scenes where the cast try hard to make you feel sad but there are simple doses of heartwarming scenes sprinkled throughout the movie which made my eyes wet. The cast was amazing. I have always liked Paul Rudd and have seen his range when it comes to acting but still he managed to surprise me in this movie. I did not expect anything from Selena Gomez but she tries and pulls of the role she is given. Craig Roberts does an excellent job like in the movie submarine (which I obviously came to know after I watched the movie with the thought "this guy looks very familiar. Where have I seen him before" running in my head the entire time.). There are two more main cast members whom I don't want to mention and give away story details does real justice to their characters too. I didn't know the director either but he has done a really good job with this one. All in all a really good movie. A must watch I would say. And ya, THUMBS UP to NETFLIX for making this movie.

  • Surprisingly pleasant and overly warming.

    I never review movies, but this is an exception. I have never been so pleasantly surprised by a movie in such a long time and I really have to commend the cast for doing such a great job. The movie was heartfelt from start to finish and included just the right balance of laughs and tragedy to keep the overall mood upbeat. The story, which I will refrain from spoiling, is one that can be related to everyone, regardless of our circumstances. It presents a clear choice that we make everyday; live life to its fullest or use excuses to keep everyday the exact same until we die. I believe that there is no greater message worth spreading. As I said, I have no intent on spoiling this movie whatsoever, but if you happen to run out of movie ideas, this is a solid choice even for family viewing, despite the 15 certificate.

  • Very rarely do I get attached to characters like I did in this film

    ballinkywitzki2016-06-29

    First of all, I'd like to say that I am a fan of character development. Many good movies aren't great because their characters lack a real sense of attachment. The fundamentals of caring nails it on the head. Paul Rudd is a work of art in this film and quite frankly that surprised me. Selena Gomez pleasantly perfected her role as well which surprised me even more. I am not placing any spoilers but I will tell you that it shouldn't matter what type of movies you typically enjoy, you SHOULD enjoy this one. I am a 23 year old male, and an Army Vet so you would expect a guy like me to be into more manly macho movies. Well you'd be right. But as a fan of art and emotion, I respect movies like this. You will feel a way with the story that brings you everything from joy, laughter, pain, guilt and even fear. Its an emotional roller-coaster ride and I'll be riding it again in the front seat every time. Must watch movie hands down. I'll even say you should subscribe to Netflix even if it's only for one month just to see this movie. This definitely makes its way on my top 10, easily.

  • This film demonstrates that 'direct to Netflix' is NOT a bad thing at all.

    MartinHafer2016-06-26

    A few days ago, I watched a horrid film that was produced for Netflix..."The Do-Over". So, when I saw the latest film to come directly to Netflix, "The Fundamentals of Caring", I was very apprehensive about it. Would it be yet another sub-par film or would it show that Netflix can make a product every bit as good as you'd see from larger and more traditional outlets? Fortunately, it a very good film and I am glad I forced myself to watch it. The film stars Paul Rudd as Ben, a man whose life is in shambles. His marriage is over and his child has died. To deal with his grief and failing career as a writer, he decides to become a home health aid...a rather low paying and thankless job. His first assignment is an interesting one...Trevor (Craig Roberts). Trevor is not a typical movie young man with a disability, as he's neither noble nor a complete jerk....the two stereotypes that seem rampant when films actually bother to show disabled characters. Instead, he's incredibly sarcastic...and some of this sarcasm is his way of dealing with disappointments and fears. In this sense, he and Ben actually have a lot in common as both are afraid to get on with their lives. But it's important Trevor do something, as his Muscular Dystrophy means a shortened life...and Ben hopes to put some more 'life' into that life. So he plans a bizarre roadtrip...a trip to see some of the kitschy roadside sites in America. In particular, a long trip to see the world's deepest granite pit! While this hardly sounds exciting, the trip offers quite a few twists and exciting turns...including their hooking up with a foul- mouthed young lady (Selena Gomez) and a pregnant women trying to get home before her baby arrives (Megan Ferguson). The film is a delightful slice of life...and I hardly ever use the word 'delightful'....so pay attention! Much of this is because the script by writer/director Rob Burnett does a great job of avoiding the usual clichés as well as making the characters and dialog interesting. The story is based on a novel by Jonathan Evison and the cast do a great job of bringing his story to life. In particular, I absolutely loved the job done by Roberts as Trevor...he was just terrific and manages to more than hold his own opposite a strong and capable performance by Rudd. The fact that Rudd was so good was no surprise. The fact a relatively unknown actor does a great job and isn't overshadowed by him is. As for Gomez, she is also quite good. However, I should warn folks expecting the nice Disney Channel star, as here she is very hard- edged and her vocabulary is decidedly non-Disney!! Overall, it's a very strong roadtrip film that left me very impressed and wanting more. Well worth seeing.
