yes it does. Film that has been exposed to more heat and humidity as normal will produce less vibrant colors and maybe other effects. That's why most people store their film in a fridge.

But normally, if the film is expired, but it wasn't treated badly, it'll work just fine.

It depends on what kind of film you're using. Supposedly colored - expired film can be a catch 22. Black and white film is reportedly better than color. But it's all in the handling of the film. If you've gotten the film 2nd hand - I wouldn't trust wasting your time and efforts and loading it into your Polaroid. This being, if the Polaroid package has been in warmer temperatures, poor handling/open, and FROZEN [VERY BAD for Polaroid film] then it's of no use to you. Otherwise, if you're comfortable going through some tough times and trying to find the perfect colors, go crazy!

It doesn't hurt to Google the type of Polaroid film you have, and from there you can get into specifics. For example, Polaroid 600 film is the most popular
