Changing Lanes

This begins as a provocative exploration of class divisions, as a car accident between a hotshot attorney (Ben Affleck) and a poor divorced father (Samuel L. Jackson) escalates into a dangerous feud. Then, as the two men continue to disrupt each other’s lives in increasingly frightening ways, the movie becomes an even more interesting consideration of where civility stops and social chaos begins. With smart supporting turns by Dylan Baker and Sydney Pollack.
