Benedito Dias Rodrigues One the most creative black comedy of the Eights,supported by a clever screenplay this picture has great moments really,both leading roles has a good chemistry,but the highlight is no doubt own Bernie,a pure spirit of the madness,even death he brights along the movie,a fantastic performance on live or death,when you think the subject already drained,there's coming Bernie again....dead,my favorite scene is about Bernie making sex....unbelievably funny!!!Resume:First watch: 1993 / How many: 3 / Source: TV-DVD / Rating: 7.25

ctyankee1 I saw part of this movie and it was funny. Then about 10 minutes into the video the bad language started.The two stars are on the roof doing work that they are supposed to do in the office. The are pretending that they are on the beach and the scene is funny.The are sitting on beach chairs and one of them goes into a small kids pool filled with water as they discuss business.During their discussion Richard uses the word "Christ" in a offensive way. Then the word "god damn" is used.I won't listen to words that are used to offend my God. I did not watch the rest.Now I am watching Weekend at Bernie's 2, 1993 with the same people. The word "bitch" is used but I am going to watch it unless it is like the 1989 one that I stopped watching.

SnoopyStyle Larry Wilson (Andrew McCarthy) and Richard Parker (Jonathan Silverman) are best friends working under Bernie Lomax (Terry Kiser). They discover a serious discrepancy in payouts to life insurance by the company. They don't realize that it's Bernie who's been committing the fraud. Bernie asks the mob to kill the two clueless friends but he is killed instead. When Larry and Richard find Bernie dead in his beach house, they decide to keep the illusion of him being alive to keep the party going.It's a one joke movie, and it's not that funny of a joke. Andrew McCarthy and Jonathan Silverman have some fun carrying Bernie around. They work well together. They've got good chemistry. There are some chuckles but the joke wears thin.

Neil Welch Larry (Andrew McCarthy) and Richard (Jonathan Silverman) discover a scam and report it to their boss Bernie (Terry Kiser), who invites them to his beach house for the weekend as a reward. Bernie actually plans to have them killed (he is the one who is doing the scamming), but when he dies at the start of the weekend, chancer Larry persuades worrier Richard that, with a little bit of effort, the whole weekend remains to be enjoyed - no-one has to know Bernie died just yet, right? Especially if he gets seen out and about...This daft comedy is lifted out of the ordinary by one thing, and that is Terry Kiser's extraordinary performance as Bernie. Not while he's alive, mind you, but after he's dead. Kiser's remarkably physical performance as Bernie's corpse is extremely funny and raises this film to the level of minor classic.
