💊🇬🇧 Saturday Feature: The 51st State (2001) — Samuel L. Jackson Goes Full Swagger in a Cult Crime Classic BlackTree Media presents The 51st State (also known as Formula 51), a stylish, offbeat crime thriller that pairs Samuel L. Jackson at peak swagger with British star Robert Carlyle in a transatlantic clash of crime, chemistry, and chaos. Directed by Ronny Yu, the film blends dark comedy, action, and pop-art style into a cult favorite that stands out in the Samuel L. Jackson canon for its humor, fashion, and attitude. ⭐ Plot Samuel L. Jackson stars as Elmo McElroy, a brilliant but unhinged American chemist who arrives in Liverpool to sell a new designer drug he claims is “51 times more powerful than heroin.” Teaming up (and frequently clashing) with local small-time dealer Felix DeSouza (Robert Carlyle), Elmo quickly finds himself hunted by gangsters, assassins, and law enforcement. As deals fall apart and bodies pile up, the film becomes a fast-talking, fast-moving ride through the criminal underworld — powered by Jackson’s larger-than-life performance and razor-sharp dialogue. ⭐ Starring • Samuel L.
