- Though it probably is predictable and unoriginal, the endearing details of The Fundamentals of Caring doesn't make it feel like a waste of time.Reply
- "The Fundamentals of Caring" is a sweet, funny, and heartfelt movie that I enjoyed watching. I thought all of the main characters were portrayed very well, but I thought some of the supporting characters weren't always as well done. Paul Rudd and Craig Roberts' performances stand out and I felt their characters had good chemistry. I also thought the dialogue was well-done and for the most part felt like real conversations. This took away from the overall realism of the movie. I also think the movie hits a lot of predictable notes even though the story is very good. This isn't a movie that will change your life and there are definitely others like it just as good, but it is a very down to earth movie that will put a smile on your face regardless.Reply
- Amazingly funny, heartfelt, and spectacular. It was surprisingly perfect. Had the right amount of comedy and humor and the right amount of emotion and sadness. They blended together perfectly with great acting and true emotions.Reply

- This movie will make you laugh and cry not to be cliche but there is truly something for everyone in this movie.Reply
- Story about a disabled kid who takes a road trip and meets some people along the way. The flashback about his son was annoying. It wasn't that funny, but it didn't suck.Reply
- Great coming of age story within the story of a man discovering himself. Fun humor and nice development of likeable characters.Reply
- A quirky movie with pleasant dialogue and well-done development of the titular character, but an overdone premise paired with cliche circumstances.Reply
- Hilarious drama about illness and trying to reconcile with the loss of a loved one. Brilliant cast, great humor and most importantly - no tedious plot.Reply

- This is a very good movie. Paul Rudd's the man. Craig Roberts nails it again. And, Selena Gomez shocked me with her excellent performance. Smart, witty and heartwarming. The jokes are perfectly timed and simple enough to make them all the more funny. 4.5/5 would rec to anyone.Reply
