I have watched About A Boy over and over and each time I seem to love it even more. I really think it's the best film from 2002. It's very rare now for a movie to be this funny and at the same time be just as touching, too. You actually care for the characters in this movie and the ending is satisfying. Hugh Grant is great as Will and it is definitely his best performance. Also, About A Boy just wouldn't be the same without the soundtrack by Badly Drawn Boy.
It's disappointing that not a lot of people went to see it in theatres since it was in almost direct competition with spider-man and star wars, but now that it's on video do not pass up the chance to see it. I regret I didn't see it sooner.
My Rating: 10/10
