Andrew McCarthy, Barry Bostwick, Constance Shulman

Yeesh. 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...( read more  read more... ) all manner of undignified things the living would never tolerate. Jonathan Silverman and Andrew McCarthy return as hapless businessmen who flee to the Virgin Islands after being accused of embezzlement. For reasons we won't go into, they need Bernie's corpse to get out of a jam. McCarthy is annoyingly mannered, Silverman is on auto-pilot, and the visual jokes--all based on one form of desecration or another--do not strike any resonant black-comedy chords. --Tom Keogh

    There was absolutely no need for a sequel!
  • September 29, 2007
    This is nowhere near as good as the original, but still a genuinely pretty funny sequel, that's not as bad as people make it out to be. Bernie provides lots of good laughs with his silly dancing, and even though he is dead, he brought lots of life to this movie at times.Andrew Mc...( read more)Carthy is amazing once again, he is just as hilarious, had fantastic chemistry with Silverman, seemed to be enjoying himself, brought a lot of energy to the film, and was just perfect overall.With there screw-ups and the VooDoo and it's a laugh all the way through.

    This is a solid sequel from the very funny Weekend at Bernies. This is much of the same stuff from the original. Jonathan Silverman and Andrew McCarthy return in this. The film is funny. But it does not hold the same appeal as the original. But I still gots some laughs from this...( read more). If you liked the original then check this film out.
