The evolutions of Gavin Banek, a partnered Wall Street lawyer, and Doyle Gipson, a father seeking to retain partial custody of his children, ripple greatly after they are components of a minor rush-hour traffic accident. I am selective with “evolutions”; both characters evolve after the accident, vying for conceit and manipulation before the experience molds both into tolerant and ethical men at the film’s end. Changing Lanes, an engaging film, apparently, because it made me ignore my responsibilities on a Sunday afternoon, is the stuff of so many other films that hing upon contrived ethical circumstances.
