Ug, I'm sorry about the SPOILER tag fail! I wrote that on about 4 hours sleep and my son was nagging me for the computer so I posted and left without proofreading. Sorry! Sorry! Sorry!
Thankfully someone with superhero like powers fixed it for me!!!!!!
I'm not sure a film whose premise requires that every single person in the film must be an idiot for it to work counts as a modern comedy classic...
But, I'll play along (I haven't seen Weekend at Bernies since I was about 13 so I don't remember anything about it). It does have a surprising 6.3 rating at IMDB, so this begs the question of what's the cutoff for people "liking" a film? It's at least better than 50%
Maybe you stumped me, but I'm pretty sure everything about the plot of that films hangs on the biggest suspension of disbelief eclipsed since then only by the idea that Denise Richards could be a physicist...

What's wrong with it? It's competently made, scripted, acted, etc. It's a comedy so, for the most part, it either works for you or it does, However, as I understood what you were saying (which is why I tried to clear up what it was you were saying/asking) this passes as a 'good' film which is then subjectively not well considered.
