Weekend at Bernie's

I remember watching this with my mom when I was a teenager and we laughed so much. Such a funny movie.

Ah, Weekend At Bernie's. One of those movies that, let's just be honest, could have only worked well in the 80s. It just has that perfect 80s-ness to it.Weekend At Bernie's came out in 1989, the tail end of the 1980s. Starring Jonathon Silverman and Andrew McCarthy, WAB is a movie about two accountants, Richard and Larry respectively, who work at a very successful insurance firm in New York City. Their boss and company CEO Bernie Lomax, played by Terry Kiser, has ties to a local organized crime crew and is embezzling from the company. At the beginning, Richard and Larry discover someone is ripping the company off. Alerting their boss, unknowing that it's Bernie himself stealing from the company. Bernie then arranges for not only them to come to his beach house over the weekend, but for his mob connections to have the two friends taken care of. However, it backfires when the mob boss has Bernie killed instead.During a case of mixed connections, Richard and Larry find out about the deal (but not the fact the killer was never after them to begin with), get worried, and come up with a plan that basically is no one else knows Bernie is dead, so they'll keep the charade up that he's alive until they're able to get off the island.Despite however morbid it sounds, it's far from it and is actually a light-hearted comedy. This is one of those movies I love watching and can watch this constantly when I want to. There's just something about the movie that I love and often has a cheering up effect on me. Andrew McCarthy, Jonathon Silverman, and Terry Kiser work very well in their performances.Is the movie worth checking out? I would say yes.

This is a delightful movie about two morons working their way up the corporate ladder who discover an "error" in the company's books. When they inform the boss Bernie Lomax about it, he invites them to his beach house for the weekend. All seems grand until they arrive at Bernie's house only to find him dead. At first,the guys were going to call the police, but then the party guest started arriving, so they decide to wait until later and joined the party since no one seem to notice that Bernie was dead. From here on in there's mischief and mayhem as these guy just can't keep out of trouble. I first saw this movie the theater and thought it was hysterical. Great comedy.

We've watched this move before and are glad to have it in our collection.

I purchased this to watch with my kids, so they could see some of the silly movies we watched in the 80s. We had a good family movie night.

Bought this to watch with my 15 year old Granddaughter she loved it and laughed quite a bit through it so I think it was a great purchase.

Each time I watch I laugh wholeheartedly

Worth the money for a great oldie!!
