about a boy

[twilightlighters]

I remember watching this movie before skins! And the thought of nicholas hoult never came to mind. But this movie was really really good!!

[rahmanz4]

whats the name of the song thats played at the end?

[HarryNhok]

@rahmanz4 that song name It's Not Easy (Superman) by Five for Fighting

[Andreasol5]

good movie



[moudy95]

Im reading this story naww :D

[AshRandom6]

Its Tony !

[Omniverse77]

meh. i'd still rather stay single.

[1MissKarlieStarr]

"Please don't commit suicide!!!" Love that line XD!!

[LetsStopThisSong]

I saw this movie before watching Skins, then I realized... Aww I love this movie so much.

[wangzongxiang123]

he was in Maurice...

[grannyweatherwax6]

i love that the clothes he was wearing in the movie to make him seem such an odd ball would be considered uber trendy today!

[Vielluck]

OMG...baby tony

[chocoholicSISTA263]

i remember this movie now! :D a british gem

[freshD1806]

Watched this film in english with german subtitels. Must say: Brilliant movie.

[itssofetchx]

You? breakin' up with me? LOL

[SuperRubix123]

be careful, that kid will turn into a big blue beast

[DannyBoredoms]

LOL HE LOOKS THE SAME

[lxXEricKXxl]

haha I watched this film like 3 times but I remember at 1:20 the version I saw Marcus said, You don't give a shit about anybody and so on

[NKismynextgoal]

@pariskissz

Idem. But that's not bad at all. I'm dull and boring, and I know it. Many are boring, but think that their family stories and events in life even have some importance (not!). Thanks to the men who invented a computer, TV and mp3-players:-) And when the phone rings, there is no rule that says that I have to pick up. So I can shut off the world outside easily. Too bad my dad din't write a christmas carol, so I could stay out of a job forever :-)

[foootiexc]

*nicholas hoult

[ZUI991]

It's amazing to know that the kid will grow up to become beast in the new X-men movie!

[tezzy149]

Little Tony

[photoboothgal]

"No, you've always had that wrong. I really am this shallow" hahahah <3

[photoboothgal]

Fucking love it.

[woppilpoppil]

Natalia Tena in the movie is best!

[TheLadyEmerald]

Actually a brilliant film. Loved it and I'll never get bored of it!

[SergioSource]

I read the book in class

[julemanden800]

Rofl i realised it was tony stonem.. n im a boy :<

[MalfoysMuppetMates]

I like how they replaced the swear words with... other words :P

[EsotericOccultist]

I read the book...now I have to see the movie.

[nagyjani87]

how british... :)

[stefmaster64]

about a boy 2 will be out by december of next year (2012) featuring justing beiber and octo-mom who must face a difficult decision of caring for americas favorite pop singer or the lives of her other 8 children.

[GoldCamProduction]

This movie, brilliant, you don't know when to laugh or

Cry. Well u do. It just is sad and funny

[GoldCamProduction]

"Oy, were you the ones throwin' bloody great loafs at the ducks?!".

OMG soooooo funny!

[Alannbitchh]

lol I always knew him as Marcus seeing him as tony was weird :L

[BracoBen]

@laxhottie36 i just rofled

[JigglyRose]

TONY IS SO CUTE <3

[Jakesta246]

skins ftw!!!

[laxhottie36]

Tony is the ugliest shit ever.

[kms9398]

@laxhottie36 your obviously blind....

[laxhottie36]

@kms9398 Um no i'm obviously not...cause with my own two perfect eyes ive witnessed the ugliest shit ever...?

[kms9398]

@laxhottie36 well you have your opinion and I have mine, and in my opinion Nicholas Hoult makes shit look good.

[UNflorida246]

What was the song named again when he opened his gift and said " shake ur ass" who was it by??

[mhmmitserin]

@UNflorida246 Mystikal

[max888123]

The best part was when the waiter said "excuse me you're disturbing the other customers" his voice was hilarious

[Kathrin2496]

We watch this film in english (i'm from Germany, wohooou! :D).

We read the first two chapters of the book and this day we started to watch the film.

I like this film :D

[sweetgirl249]

I loved this movie.

[porcelainsins]

hahah the kid that plays rachel weisz' son is in charlie st. cloud!

[FEARCLANVIDEOS]

Best movie

[chbae76]

so do i come in, maybe ~ ^^

[chbae76]

@chbae76

alone bad ~

friends good ~

[kinayusuke]

I swear he's adorable at that age I could cry. Makes me want to hug him and squeeze him...

[mrsmoneysab]

tony's always had those piercing blue eyes,,.. i mean nic hoult

[CrazyPandaMonkey]

Tony....you know, killing animals at a young age is a sign that you could grow up to be manipulative and controlling (and a sociopath, but whatever)

[ubercarrots]

god, nicholas hoult was even sexy at 12.

[moznico]

When this first came out I (and my little sister 10 at the time) went to the theaters and watched this 8 times. Then she came over last week and she brought the movie over and we've so far watched it 6 times (beginning to end). Seriously we have nothing much in common, and we have a 9 year age difference. But this movie is forever my link to us...Cheesy u might say but meaningful to me... : )

[0Jass]

@moznico So You Lot Get Along..



[moznico]

@0Jass yeah



[mrbriscoe2001]

@moznico I too have an unhealthy obsession with the movie;especially around Christmas time when you only want to watch movies that make you feel good..but how can you not love a movie where a selfish loner finally grows up and saves the kid from "social suicide"during that talent show ? Hugh and Nick (the kid) are incredible...

[pigs257]

hey whats this cool but okay 

[theproperenglishman]

hugh grant = legend.

[Madominum]

Maybe I'm just slow, but I thought this was a joke movie trailer for a good minute.

[ihatejb08]

Tony!

[alltoohuman17]

Hugh Grant's best film.

[lolness2009]

i go to the school which was filmed here....Southfields community College

[moonjumpr]

my life, as played by the much more attractive Hugh Grant... "fav" film of all time. "we thought Hugh Grant would be the perfect ethically suspect man to play this role."

[Bisek123]

jaki tytuł ma tapiosenka co spiewa Marcus na końcu filmu

[DancerHippie]

i love Nicholas Hoult! He looked so cute!!! :D I saw this movie today !!

[wizkidify]

great film

[theloveshineatheist]

Awesome movie

Poorly done trailer

[masteredd23]

Did you notice, that from 0:45 the song in the background sounds like Nirvana's About A Girl? That's probably where the title is from^^

[Carlozandre]

@masteredd23 Actually, the movie is based in a book called About a Boy, from Nick Hornby, and the history in the book but not in the movie is set in the grunge period, so, the title is, in fact, a reference to the song. Cobain's suicide is a important part of the plot in the book - they changed this in the movie.

[masteredd23]

@Carlozandre Thanks for the information :)

I knew, the title was actually a book, because we're reading it at school at the moment. But I just read the first 20 chapters, so Curt didn't take part in the story :)

[08dimepiece08]

i think i'll rent it since rachel weisz is in it, and at 2:15 it reminded me of someone special =]

[sheisdaniella]

oh nicholaas

so damn hoot

[74sowen]

lmao I think he's had better haircuts than in this film though :P

[ImCaptainJade]

The story was awesome and touching.

I luv Hugh ,Tony nd Rachel!!!!

Luv the film and the book!!

[beffbbz]

I've just realised that its Tony. :')

Aww! Love him. :')

[AdvancedGentleman]

I don't particularly care for Hugh Grant, but I did like this movie.

[pretnnii]

TONY STONEM! i love him D:!

[kx85rider79]

tony from skins :]

[lalaland3344]

WHOA Rachel asked will if she could come in? I don't think that was in the movie was it

no but this film is awesome I've watched it like 20 times cause I just love Hugh :)

[amberisabella]

I love how Marcus is such a geek and so uncool, but now, years later, his fashion style is popular. :P I see so many people with Marcus hats and cardigans.

[smexime14]

This kid was going to play Artemis Fowl, but he grew too old for the role

[MyClw]

love this film-so well written

[UberMetallMaschine]

awesome movie

[KimDonesia]

When I first started waching Skins series 1, I was thinking... "Ok, where the hell have I seen this guy before? He looks so damn familiar". Then I realized that he's the little kid in About a Boy, a movie I've watched like 50 billion times!! Oh boy, he's grown up to be sooo good-looking!

[AngelicSakuko]

I know right!!! How gorgeous is he! It's weird, hollywood stars are adorable as kids then as you watch them grow up to be stunning it's kind of like "wow, they have such good genes!"

[AnniePatz]

Aaaaaaaaaawn!

Tony was soooo cute!

*-*

[DolaszakRap]
