Fundamentals of Caring

My definition of a good movie is the one that could make you laugh and teared up on one sitting. And only a good writer that could drive the watcher's feeling upside down. Not every movie has that potential but I just discover one and I would like to share it to the world.

The Fundamentals of Caring

I, for one, is a big fan of Paul Rudd. Since the movie I Could Never Be Your Woman to The Admission and even Ant-Man, and since his appearance on Friends. I would vow that I'm gonna watch every movies with him on it, I even watched Anchorman! (credits to my boyfriend). And when I see his face on the "watch next" of Netflix, I automatically pressed it. Oh and there's Selena Gomez's face too (she's also my favorite actress, coincidentally)

At first, I was kinda cringed to watch a medical related movie. Bcs the story is about a boy whom diagnosed with DHS. So I paused for a day or two. Finding another movie that maybe more interesting to watch. But that time I only found Eat Pray Love, a movie I've been trying to watch but I just cant. So I got back with it. And the thought of medical term is really just me judging, I lmao-ed through it because Paul character, Ben, is making us easy to see the sickness of Trevor. He even make fun of it a lot to reduce the awkwardness.

Selena's character, Dot, also the highlight of the movie, because she's obviously bring the romantic vibes for Trevor. She's the bad-ass character that we need to complete the trio. But then another woman character come named Peaches, whom pregnant and was there to open up Ben's traumatic issues with his child death. 

The conflict of the stories goes around between Ben's trying to forget about his late-child and Trevor's relationships with his father, and also his bucket list of seeing Rufus; The World's biggest Bovine (its the funniest part lol!! especially with Trevor's, Rufus's, and Ben's stare back-to-back transition that just killed me) and also "The World's Deepest Pit" and how Ben always trying to help Trevor to pee standing up.

The best moment I would say was when Ben helped Peaches delivers her baby (with a slight flashback of Ben's child accident), Ben finally knows how to make Trevor's dreams of peeing standing up come true, and every Trevor and Ben love and hate-father and son like-relationships.

In the end Ben resign, but they still remains friends and I'm glad, that means he could be closer than a contract job.

Favourite Quotes:
"Bullshit on a stick"
"Bite of a Slim Jim"
"Mall."
"Ma."
"Of course Trevor was joking. Anna quits the next day."
