This is a charming little film that makes you feel good everytime you watch it..
I generally don't like Hugh Grant his stuttering idiot routine usually gets on my nerves but he's really good in this film..He actually talks like a normal person..in complete sentences

I think it's pretty decent as it is, a good commentary -- it wasn't a "HUGE" box office hit so I don't imagine they'll do a new SE, although you never know these days...

Well let see what the current DVD has....
- 2.35:1 Anamorphic Widescreen
- English Dolby Digital 5.1
- Audio Commentary
- Deleted Scenes (15 mins)
- Making-of (15 mins)
- Interview with Badly Drawn Boy (20 mins)
- Two Badly Drawn Boy music videos (10 mins)
- Trailers (2 mins)
- "English to English" dictionary (3 mins)
- "Santa's Super Sleigh" song and lyrics (3 mins)
That's over an hour of bonus video material along with a 100 minute plus commentary. What else could you do for About a Boy?

What the HELL people?
That current disc is all done out in special.
A commentary, deleted scenes, a behind-the-scenes making of, interviews, music videos, trailers, the SSS song, and the text features aren't special enough?
You're going to make the "About a Boy" DVD cry, my main man.
Dang people don't appreciate nuthin...

If this isn't my favorite movie of all time, it certainly can see the front of the line. As for a SE, I'd have to agree with those who feel that the current is pretty good as it is. I LOVE this movie, and I certainly would never have guessed it would become so special to me before I saw it for the first time...
I really LOVE this movie!

It's on the US release.
I think About A Boy has the all time worst cover art. Yes, even Chairman of the Board has better cover art.
Getting this cover should be required!

Unless you're of the type that finds Grant "dreamy" I guess.

Will: The thing is, a person's life is like a TV show. I was the star of The Will Show. And The Will Show wasn't an ensemble drama. Guests came and went, but I was the regular. It came down to me and me alone. If Marcus' mum couldn't manage her own show, if her ratings were falling, it was sad, but that was her problem. Ultimately, the whole single mum plotline was a bit complicated for me.
