Two men, two cars, one accident - a minor rush hour fender bender on New York City's crowded FDR Drive. From this chance collision springs a powerful domino effect that turns two strangers into vicious adversaries, each determined to annihilate the other by any means possible. It's New York in the 21st century, and a person's life can be completely decimated by a well placed phone call or the simple touch of "Enter" on a computer keyboard.
On his way to court to represent his high powered law firm, Gavin Banek (Ben Affleck) is weaving through heavy traffic. In a different lane, is Doyle Gipson (Samuel L. Jackson), not a lawyer, but on his way to another courtroom to prove he is a changed man and a good father worthy of the right to see his children. They are two men desperate to succeed for very different reasons - one is struggling to reach the top of his career, the other is struggling away from rock bottom. And now, a minor accident will change the lives of both of these men, systematically revealing how very thin the mask of human decency is, and how close beneath the surface lurks the beast within us all. Paramount Pictures presents a new film from the director of Notting Hill. The gritty, urban score is by British composer David Arnold. Arnold's previous scores include Independence Day, Stargate and Shaft. |
