- Synopsis:
- Elmo McElroy (Samuel L. Jackson) is a streetwise American master chemist who heads to England to sell his special new formula - a powerful, blue concoction guaranteed to take you to 'the 51st state'. McElroy's new product delivers a feeling 51 times more powerful than any thrill, any pleasure, any high in history. But his plans for a quick, profitable score go comically awry when he gets stuck in Liverpool with an unlikely escort and his ex-girlfriend and becomes entangled in a bizarre web of double-dealing and double-crosses.

Transatlantic Tragedy - well not quite! - The 51st State review by CP Customer
Wasen't sure what to make of this one, Samuel L Jackson and Robert Carlyle are as you would expect, this is funny in places but it's just not funny enough or with a strong enough story line to be memorial or to be recommended.
If you like films like snakes on a plane and just want to watch a film that isn't too taxing on the brain then this could be up your street.
