    "Romeo Romeo where for art thou Romeo?" Oh wait, that is classic literature. This was a mostly Gouda laden teeny bopper rom com. Admittedly I do like a little cheese with my movies. I also think that Blake Lively is very pretty. There were some good parts to this film. I thought ...( read more)that Joe Mantegna did a great job playing Charlie. I also got a kick out of the whole necrophiliac undertone of the story.
    Overall I would have to say that Elvis and Anabelle is another fairy tail wanna be that thrives on the teeny bopper obsession with romance and prince charming.
