  dvdfile.com: Weekend At Bernies review
Weekend at Bernie's is not the best comedy I have ever seen, but it does manage to entertain.
The ridiculous idea that everyone thinks Bernie is still alive becomes the long going gag of the movie, and you may find the film dull if you have trouble finding humor in Bernie being dead and the apparent dim wits of the island believing he is alive.
Weekend at Bernie's is by far not the worst transfer for a movie of its age, but it is not as vibrant as many others.

 Weekend at Bernie's (1989)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Trivia: Terry Kiser (Bernie)'s stunt double suffered a few broken ribs during filming due to all the pitfalls and stunts of playing a dead man; most notably in the scene involving 'Bernie' being dragged around the surface of the lake, bumping into metal floating obstacles.
Unfortunately for them, Bernie is the one behind the fraud, and he asks his mobster associate to take them out.
Larry and Richard arrive at Bernie's gorgeous beach house for the weekend and, after discovering that Bernie is dead, manage to make it look like he is still alive so that they can enjoy the rest of the weekend.

 WEEKEND AT BERNIES at HOLLYWOOD TEEN MOVIES
Unbeknown to them Bernie's intention is to have them murdered but things don't work out as planned and when the boys arrive at the beach house they discover Bernie dead.
The original concept of "Weekend At Bernie's", the likeable performances of the stars, the exotic scenic locations and the bouncy music score are just some of the elements that add to the fun and make "Weekend At Bernie's" an enjoyable romp at the beach.
Two yuppie ladder-climbers (Andrew McCarthy, Jonathan Silverman) are ready for a weekend party at their boss's beach house, but when he's bumped off by gangsters they have to carry the body around and pretend he's alive in order to salvage the bash.

 Weekend At Bernies | Retro Junk
However when they discover that their boss has been murdered prior to their arrival, they attempt to convince people that he is still alive to avoid suspicion for his death, leading to all kinds of wacky mishaps.
Weekend at Bernie's is a jokey, popular curiosity and cultural reference that persists in the collective consciousness, despite staggering evidence of its insipid emptiness.
Weekend at Bernie's is supposed to be a satire of social discourse, a wildly farcical depiction of the notion that people are so self-absorbed that they won't even notice if the person they're talking to is dead.

Weekend at Bernie's starts when two lowly clerks at an insurance agency uncover a 2 million dollar fraud and report it to their boss, Bernie (Terry Kiser).
Unfortunately for them, Bernie is the one behind the fraud, and he invites them to his island beach house for the weekend, where he intends to have them killed by his mob contacts.
Weekend at Bernie's was made at the height of 1980s fashion and features many amusing outfits and hairstyles--often the styles are funnier than the dialogue, and the characters are tissue-paper thin.

 Movie Review for Weekend at Bernies - 2003-09-03
Richard and Larry discover Bernie’s dead body, and rather than immediately phone the police, they choose to enjoy their weekend getaway, even if it is accompanied by a corpse.
As Bernie’s corpse is lost and taken through constant obstacles, the film chooses to rely on the dead guy as its key prop.
Weekend at Bernie’s plays right because the story is a well-managed comedy of errors, the kind where every plot detail corresponds with another to create the most absurd situation possible.

 Movie Review for Weekend at Bernies II - 2003-09-22
The joke behind Weekend at Bernie’s, a culty dark comedy that surprised many with its clever plotting and well-choreographed pratfalls, was that Bernie Lomax, the title millionaire sleazeball, was dead and loving it.
Weekend #2 (even though it technically isn’t a weekend at all, actually) opens the Monday after the original adventure at Bernie’s beach house, with accountants/programmers Richard Parker (Jonathan Silverman) and his best friend Larry (Andrew McCarthy) returning to New York City and identifying Bernie at the morgue.
The one amusing aspect of Weekend at Bernie’s II comes from the irony that Bernie himself is the only sign of life.

The dead guy from Weekend at Bernie's is back for the gratuitous sequel, still flopping around in his lifelessness like a wet noodle and getting dragged, stuck, bumped, and subjected to all manner of undignified things the living would never tolerate.
I fully agree with one viewer who suggested that Terry Kiser (Bernie), who was hilarious when he was alive, should have been in Part II in a flashback mode or something playing the part of the living Bernie.
The whole idea of voodoo was super silly, except for it giving Bernie a chance to move around a bit and not be a lifeless corpse the whole time.

I suffered through this movie at work the other day, because we had some down time, and I didn't have a book with me. It must be a big hit with severe head injury survivors, but I don't know who else would waste their time with this crap.
If your idea of great comedy is watching a middle aged man dance the limbo for two hours, occasionally falling down, or banging his head into something, then this movie was made for you.
Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that Weekend at Bernies II could match the original but, like the Godfather II and Empire Strikes Back, it actually surpasses the original.
