Plot |
Director Roger Michell follows up the hit romantic comedy Notting Hill (1999) with this thought-provoking thriller. Ben Affleck and Samuel L. Jackson star, respectively, as Gavin Banek and Doyle Gibson, two New York men whose lives become accidentally intertwined in a Good Friday fender bender on the FDR Drive. Late for a crucial appointment, hotshot lawyer Gavin tosses Doyle a blank check and leaves the scene, while Doyle, whose car is inoperable, is late for a court-appointed custody hearing. A recovering alcoholic, Doyle's tardiness doesn't sit well with the judge, and his situation worsens when it becomes evident that a file containing crucial information about his purchase of a home for his family has ended up in Gavin's possession, while Doyle has an equally important file belonging to Gavin. The judge grants custody to Doyle's ex-wife, and so begins an escalating war of words and deeds between the two men. Soon, egged on by an associate ( Toni Collette ), Gavin hires a "fixer" ( Dylan Baker ) to destroy Doyle's credit, forcing Doyle to fire back with some cunning moves of his own. Changing Lanes co-stars William Hurt , Sydney Pollack , and Toni Collette . — Karl Williams |
