Rl T @RT92191138 8 hrs ago Stupid, disturbing and poorly acted. Despite an inventive concept, I didn't crack a smile (let alone laugh) during the entire movie. If corpse dressing and desecration is your thing, maybe you will enjoy it more. See more Robert P @Superbad Sep 19, 2026 I loved this movie but it's only worthy of 3 stars! See more Robert H @Rwhobbs198 Aug 29, 2026 Weekend at Bernie’s (1989) is one I somehow missed growing up, even though I remember watching the sequel as a kid and finding it awkwardly hilarious. The original has an undeniably strange premise, and some of the humor—especially involving Bernie’s corpse and the sexual jokes—lands more awkwardly than funny today. It’s very much a product of late-’80s comedy, with plenty of absurdity that probably went right over my head when I was younger. I definitely laughed, and the movie has its moments, but it’s goofy, ridiculous, and not something I feel much need to revisit. A weirdly entertaining one-and-done at best. See more Joel H @786Joel Aug 17, 2026 Weekend at Bernie’s is one of those zany 80s comedies that probably shouldn’t have worked, but somehow it does. I’m not saying it’s one of the greatest films of that time, but it definitely made a cultural impact. Even though the premise is ridiculous, and everything seems to become more and more implausible over the runtime, it really tries to justify what is happening and keep the story alive. Given the comedically morbid nature of this movie, I understand why it appealed to me as a kid, but I’m still not entirely sure how Weekend at Bernie’s made its way into my regular movie watching rotation.

It's everlasting laughs and staying power have proven that this one Summer weekend has truly never ended and we are all better off for it.
