But in a desperate attempt to rectify that, I can't see why they have to change the film names from country to country, Mc Donalds doesn't change it's name when it has restaurants across the world.
In response to this i think its because if it was released here under its US title Formula 51 it would have only attracted an older audience, who'd have thought it was a movie about a chemist. Whereas 51st State would appeal to a much wider audience.

Prime example of a film not changing its name was 'Swimfan' which bombed in the UK.
