About a Boy concerns the parallel coming-of-age stories of the thirtysomething Will (Hugh Grant), a layabout "serial nice guy" living a posh, carefree lifestyle off his deceased father's fortune; and the preteen Marcus (Nicholas Hoult), a bright but awkward youth who's tired of his mom Fiona's (Toni Collette) depressed, boyfriend-less state. Their paths collide when Will, deciding that single mothers are the easiest romantic conquests on the dating scene, fabricates a two-year-old son and joins a group called S.P.A.T. (Single Parents Alone Together). Marcus is wise to Will's scheme, however, and through some incessant pestering and blackmail, he contrives for Will to date Fiona. Though Will doesn't hit it off immediately with either Marcus or his mother, he gradually begins to open up to the people around him -- so much so that he attracts the attention of another attractive single mom (Rachel Weisz). A U.S./U.K. co-production of Robert DeNiro's Tribeca Films and Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner's Working Title (the company responsible for the Grant-related Four Weddings and a Funeral and Bridget Jones's Diary), About a Boy was co-written by What's Eating Gilbert Grape creator Peter Hedges. ~ Michael Hastings, RoviHide synopsis
a NICE MOVIE WITH hUGH, nICHOLAS, AND TONI. I SAW THIS MOVIE PREVIOUSLY ON STARZ AND KNEW THAT I WANTED THIS MOVIE FOR MY COLLECTION. IT IS ABOUT A MAN, SINGLE, I GUESS RICH, WHO MEETS A BOY AND THEY HAVE A RELATIONSHIP EVEN THOUGH HUGH WAS NOT REALLY INTO IT AND THE FUNNY STUFF ABOUT A DEAD DUCK AND HIS SINGING HIS MOTHER'S FAVORITE SONG ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Really about two boys, as Hugh Grant is definitely not a grown up. But watch the story line unwind and the characters develop into loving and caring individuals. The boy's mother, Toni Collette has a difficult role to play and her son's devotion to her is heart wrenching. I loved the end of the movie and know it will be watched over and over again.
