Caught one just for fun this afternoon.
(37) Formula 51 (2001): This is by far one of the most entertaining movies starring Samuel L. Jackson. It didn't do very well in theaters, but has subsequently done much better on DVD. In addition to Jackson, we get great performances from a totally over-the-top Meat Loaf, the aggravating-but-effective Robert Carlyle, and the super-sexy Emily Mortimer.
Essentially, Jackson is a brilliant chemist trying to sell his latest drug, Formula 51. He screwed over Meat Loaf, who sends Mortimer to kill him, and then to protect him after he decides he wants him alive so he can deal with him. Carlyle is Jackson's underworld contact in England. There's great action throughout, and a great collection of one-liners. Catch this movie for pure fun. You won't be disappointed.
