Estranged father and Son going on a road trip isn't entirely new material. Ed Harris as the father , Ed Harris as he is always delivers. Jason Sudeikis for some reason always looks like a Mister Know it all in many of his roles, it makes one wonder if he has other facial expressions or emotional depth, he always appears to be the same person in all his roles.
If you're a baby boomer like me, you will feel the nostalgia we have pre-selfie era. There is something magical with how the old cameras worked and the placing of the film roll. Indeed those were the days.
You'll know what happens in this film, predictable as it is there are still some charming elements in it.

It's hard to find good dialogue and good acting anymore. This film had both. Ed Harris is always compelling, young Elisabeth Olsen is perfect for this role. Loved her character in Wind River also. Jason Sudeikis is funny, as always, but really played the dramatic scenes well I thought. Good "date night" kinda movie. I guess I enjoyed it more than most because of SO many parallels in my life......BUT ISN'T THAT WHAT WE ALL WANT TO SEE ?? Many great life messages here. Big 2 thumbs up. Millennials will most likely HATE this kind of film because it doesn't have the edgy JUNO vibe but I would highly recommend this to anyone over 40. Best movie I've seen since Gran Torino. Cheers.
Why in gods name you people have to be so damn hard,it was a nice movie,Harris was really good,Sudeikis too it was a brilliant soundtrack and two men on a road trip trying to finally understand each other before one of them is gone so the other can move on...Get a grip to reality you little babies....
The storyline was honest. You can't go wrong with Ed Harris. Dialogue was clever and at moments, profound.
With the exception of the father and son, depth of the other characters were lacking though they all had a role to play.
Editing moved it along. Cinematography quite good and appropriate. Music matched the tone; understated. Excellent sound and direction very good given the parameters.
The photos shone brilliantly to the contrast of the film. Perhaps that was the subtext of the father and the real point of Kodachrome. Sometimes you get what you see only at the end of the roll..

- TriviaThe lab in question, Dwayne's Photography, is still in business, but stopped accepting rolls of Kodachrome on December 30, 2010, citing Kodak's discontinuation of the necessary developing chemicals.
- GoofsThe drum kit Ben plays is too new to have belonged to Matt like Ben says. Those two haven't even seen each other for at least ten years, but the Sonor Vintage Series drum kit came on the market in 2015.
- Crazy creditsAfter initial credits roll (featuring photographer Steve McCurry's real-life last Kodachrome photos)...after the photos, and before the main movie credits, a black screen with "Shot on 35mm Kodak Film" is featured.
