   Is 'Bernie' a good movie?

   • "Bernie" is a nice surprise by Richard Linklater and Jack Black - the same team that brought you 2003's comedy hit "The School of Rock"; now they have reunited for a different type of comedy - a dark one. Black acts differently in this movie - more restraint, more focused, and at times more intense than in any other film he's done before.
