Movies Remakes that work

[Yuval Levy]

Dredd - the 1995 film was a mess. Stallone's portrayal of the character was terrible. Urban did it better.

The Bourne Identity - Probably one of the best action films I have ever seen

Let Me In - Almost as good as the original.

True Lies - James Cameron + Schwarzenegger is a good combination. Remande from La totale

bourne identity is a remake?

The Fly (86) with Jeff Goldblum and The Thing (1982) are generally considered the two prime examples.

The Vanishing was pretty decent. So was The Ring.

I wouldn't say Dredd is a remake. It's a reboot. A remake follows the same plot as the original. So if Dredd had been a remake, it would have had the same plot and the same characters as the Stallone movie.

Man on Fire.

Well I mean Denzel was figuratively on fire during most of the movie the part where he jammed a pen down snoopy’s throat was nuts

OK, but I mean lostdog was referring to the movie Man on Fire, not to Training Day.

3:10 to Yuma and True Grit from the Coens are modern renditions of westerns that are superior to the original films. Very well done.
