Who was the films funniest character?


I absolutely loved paulie. I don't think there's ever been a solo movie character with such wonderful antics as him. The look on his face when he seen Larry and Richard with Bernie running out onto the dock was priceless. Then at the end of the movie when chasing Larry Richard and Gwen and the things he was saying, cracked me up; "your dead meat you little b^$%&*ds"! "I'll get ch's, one by one"; "there's no place too hide". Oh, and I can't forget to mention how clumbsy he was, lol.

Spoilers ...

I think it's Bernie himself. Despite not saying a word, he does (or is made to do, lol) plenty that makes what his character does funny. He also does plenty during the time he's alive, from criminal businessman to mafia connections to rich and good-looking guy to prospective killer to aloof elite to simply their boss ...

I never think about the future, it comes soon enough
