Plot hole: When Hugh is walking near the park gate, he should have seen Marcus. Marcus was on the same side of the post as Will was.
About a Boy (2002)
1 plot hole
Directed by: Paul Weitz, Chris Weitz
Starring: Toni Collette, Rachel Weisz, Hugh Grant, Nicholas Hoult, Sharon Small, Madison Cook
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Will and Marcus are playing snooker, a close up shot shows that Will is taking a shot on the blue, which appears right at the bottom of the screen. The camera changes and he is at a different side of the table playing a long red.
Will: Once you open your door to one person anyone can come in.
Trivia: In the beginning of the film, Marcus says he would be able to take care of his mum (Toni Collette) if he were Haley Joel Osment. Toni Collette played Haley Joel Osment's mother in the The Sixth Sense.
