For me, it has to be “Old Boy” which is originally a Korean movie but the US version sucks so much that it remains incomparable. Another contender is “The Ring” again a Japanese movie (the ending differs between both versions, as the original one refers to the protagonist’s father sacrificing himself but the remake states that the cursed tape is being sent to someone else, passing the omen towards another stranger).
Solaris, the new version is decent but it’s a totally different movie and just can’t do the original justice.
Second place for me is girl with the dragon tattoo. The original is just better.
The book is worth a read. Lem is one of the titans of science fiction.
I don’t disagree, but have to say that I love the new Solaris’ soundtrack.
It’s the best soundtrack for a train ride.
