Well, if you can get to see this little known Aussie movie I suggest you do, it's not 'earth shattering' it's not 'Hollywood' (thank god!) but I for one found it to be a well made, mostly very funny, entertaining and a sometimes poignant hour thirty!.
Dad/Son road trip movies are not that common, thankfully the chemistry shown on screen by the ever excellent (but hardly seen) one liner master, Paul Hogan and of course the always likable Shane Jacobson ('Kenny') produce some truly classic moments, no spoilers here but they are 'LOL' funny together and when the mood requires, somber together.
It's a hoot, not sure why some 'reviewers' have such a downer on it? oh, Morgan Griffin as Jess was ripper mate!!!
See it if you can.

Missed this when first shown in 1996 but recently managed to watch the entire series in one day! That wasn't my intention but I just got hooked from the first episode, perhaps it's like CJ states "I love nostalgia, especially when it's about the past!" Great fun I thought and every bit as well written as the original shows from 20 years earlier.
And a great cast to boot! Actually, I do seem to remember watching the first episode of this when first broadcast - then it did nothing for me, strange how the passing of time and being bothered to watch the series in full can change one's initial thought.
They don't do 'em like this these days and sure, it's not 'cutting edge comedy' (whatever that is?)but I didn't care.
Even without Reggie it was still great, super! to see so many original cast members reunited for this one-off (that's all it was intended to be) series.
Sure, it won't (indeed it didn't!) change the world, but a ruddy good Brit-com all the same.
If you can find a repeat I urge you to give it a try.
I didn't get where I am today by recommending rubbish sitcoms on IMDb you know! :)
