It’s a popular belief that most cinematic remakes pale in comparison to the original. But is thatalwaysthe case? Sometimes, and more often than you think, the remake actually ends up better than the original.
The history of cinematic remakes starts around the beginning of cinema itself; maybe it’s proof that maybe filmmakers havealwaysbeen starved of ideas. In 1896, legendary French director Georges Méliès directed the 67-second long film Playing Cards, a movie that “remade” a similar film titled The Messers from Louis Lumière. Both movies have the same “plot” of men sitting around tables playing cards.
With more than a century’s worth of movies, there are absolutely stories that heavily benefitted from a second chance. Here are 35 movie remakes that are actually better than the original.
35. Suspiria (2018)

34. Little Women (2019)
(Image credit: Sony Pictures Entertainment)
Louisa May Alcott’s 1868 novel has been adapted countless times into all kinds of mediums: TV, musicals, radio, even other novels that humorously add werewolves and vampires to the story. For most audiences however, the 1994 version starring Winona Ryder, and Greta Gerwig’s Oscar-nominated 2019 adaptation, are the main two giants (ofLittleWomen - ha, get it?). Both versions have their fans. But Gerwig’s star-studded 2019 production - starring Saoirse Ronan, Emma Watson, Florence Pugh, Laura Dern, Timothee Chalamet, and Meryl Streep - earns its reputation, being a faithful yet lively rendition of a now very familiar story.

33. It (2017)
(Image credit: Warner Bros. Pictures)
In 1990, Stephen King’s It became an Emmy-nominated horror miniseries on ABC; Tim Curry played the part of Pennywise the Clown, whose face memorably graced the cover of the movie’s striking VHS packaging. In September 2017, Andy Muschietti helmed a far more fleshed-out remake befitting the cinematic universe era. Bill Skarsgård dons the makeup of Pennywise, giving a possessed performance that makes him a truly formidable nemesis for traumatized preteens. While both versions owe a tremendous debt to King, Muschietti’s lavish late summer tentpole is an effective portrait of adolescent fears. Just don’t bother with the sequel.

31. Fatal Attraction (1987)
(Image credit: Paramount Pictures)
It may surprise many to learn that Fatal Attraction, a late 1980s classic that kicked off the erotic thriller boom in Hollywood, is actually a remake. In a nutshell: Screenwriter James Dearden first wrote the story and turned it into his 1980 short film Diversion, which aired on British TV. Years later, the concept was retooled into Fatal Attraction, a bigger-budget production made for theaters with director Adrian Lyne. Today Fatal Attraction is rightfully considered a modern classic, emblematic of a time when mainstream movies weren’t afraid to get dirty. But its origins as a remake proves that some stories just need a second chance, and on a bigger screen.
30. Some Like It Hot (1959)
(Image credit: MGM)
Remakes aren’t a 21st century invention. Even in the 1950s, Hollywood filmmakers were taking inspiration from foreign cinema and making classics in their own right. In 1959, Billy Wilder crafted his now timeless and celebrated comedy Some Like It Hot, in which Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon co-star with bombshell Marilyn Monroe in a story about musicians who disguise themselves as women and join a traveling troupe to escape the mafia. The movie’s origins lie in the 1935 French film Fanfare of Love, with Betty Stockfeld as the Monroe analogue. Some Like It Hot is considered one of the greatest movies of all time with preservation in the National Film Registry, but that it’s a remake of a different movie simply means nobody’s perfect.

28. The Manchurian Candidate (2004)

27. Vanilla Sky (2001)
(Image credit: Paramount Pictures)
One of Cameron Crowe’s most mystifying films, Vanilla Sky, is a remake of Alejandro Amenábar’s 1997 thriller Open Your Eyes. Tom Cruise leads as a playboy magazine publisher in New York City who begins to question his reality after a car accident leaves him severely disfigured. Penélope Cruz stars in both versions, playing the same role of a woman the main protagonist becomes smitten and hopes to find happiness. Though Vanilla Sky polarized critics in 2001, it has since become a cult movie remembered for its emotional story and ambiguous ending.
26. The Ten Commandments (1956)
(Image credit: Paramount Pictures)
Prolific American director Cecil B. DeMille returned to the religious well at least twice throughout his career. In 1923, he helmed the silent film epic The Ten Commandments, which at the time was one of the most sophisticated film productions in history. A little over 30 years later, DeMille pushed the technical envelope even further with a second movie entitled The Ten Commandments, itself loosely remaking and elaborating on his previous film’s prologue. The ‘56 classic functions as a biopic of Moses (Charlton Heston) and his tumultuous relationship with his adoptive brother, Egyptian pharaoh Ramses (Yul Brynner) as Moses leads his fellow enslaved Hebrews out of Egypt. Still one of the most successful movies of all time, The Ten Commandments set a new standard for Hollywood filmmaking, and absolutely eclipses DeMille’s own previous effort.

22. You’ve Got Mail (1998)
(Image credit: Warner Bros.)
Taking inspiration from a 1937 Hungarian play and the 1940 classic The Shop Around the Corner, Nora Ephron oversaw a lovely turn-of-the-century update that is the 1998 rom-com You’ve Got Mail. Firmly set in its contemporary setting - at the height of the dot-com bubble, and the nascent rise of bookstore giants like Barnes & Noble - Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan play rivals in the publishing world who, unbeknownst to them, are actually smitten with each other via anonymous emails on AOL. As bright as a summer walk in the park and cozy as a knit blanket in winter, You’ve Got Mail has it all. Even with its dated technology, it feels far more timeless than its predecessor.
21. The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956)
(Image credit: Universal Pictures)
20. True Lies (1994)
(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)
One of the most beloved Hollywood hits of the 1990s is, in fact, a remake of a French movie. La Totale!, released in 1991, tells of a family man who works as a secret agent and uses his professional skills to track his family - a decision that leads to unexpected consequences. A few short years later in 1994, James Cameron and Arnold Schwarzenegger teamed up for True Lies, an exciting but upbeat remake that reframes the family man (Schwarzenegger) as a U.S. government agent who struggles in his work/life balance. At the time one of the most expensive Hollywood movies ever made, True Lies is now remembered as one of the finest films of its era, and especially in Schwarzenegger’s career.

17. The Longest Yard (2005)

16. Hairspray (2007)
(Image credit: Warner Bros.)
It feels like sacrilege to call a sanitized, bigger-budget remake of a John Waters movie “better” than the original. But whether you boogie down with the ‘07 Hairspray from director Adam Shankman or not, there’s no denying that it was and is still one of the most successful musical films of its time. Both films throw it back to early ’60s Baltimore, following a full-bodied teenager who aspires to be a dancer on a popular TV show; upon doing so, she takes on contemporary racial discrimination. The ‘07 version is an adaptation of the Broadway musical version of Waters’ movie, which opened in 2002 and won the Tony for Best Musical in 2003.
15. 3:10 to Yuma (2007)
(Image credit: Lionsgate)
A few years after helming the Johnny Cash biopic Walk the Line, director James Mangold stuck around the aesthetics of cowboys and tough guys for his remake of the 1957 classic Western 3:10 to Yuma. An improvement over the original in every way, Mangold’s movie carries the director’s assured and handsome direction, along with sterling performances from Russell Crowe and Christian Bale, with Bale taking on the dangerous job of escorting an outlaw (Crowe) to justice. 10 years later, Mangold revisited a different version of the same story, one that uses Hugh Jackman’s popular X-Men character Wolverine in the R-rated Western-inspired epic Logan.
14. Man on Fire (2004)
(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)
13. The Fly (1986)
(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)
The original 1958 version of The Fly is a strange and grotesque movie, especially for its time. But what the story really needed was David Cronenberg. In 1986, the iconoclast horror filmmaker renowned for his fetish for body horror made his mainstream, big budget debut with The Fly, a remake of the ‘58 film. With Jeff Goldblum in the lead role, The Fly tells of a scientist who slowly turns into a half man, half fly creature. That’s a premise just begging for Cronenberg, and indeed Cronenberg’s movie is the only version worth watching.

5. The Invisible Man (2020)
(Image credit: Universal Pictures)
In the aftermath of the Dark Universe’s collapse, the Universal Monsters found themselves under the care of various filmmakers once again. Leigh Whannell, whose 2018 sci-fi horror Upgrade became a cult favorite, took control of the 2020 version of The Invisible Man, which brings a modern, #MeToo-era spin over the 1933 original. Whannell’s film explores timely feminist themes in its story about a woman (Elisabeth Moss) who struggles to escape the reach of her abusive, affluent tech CEO partner (Oliver Jackson-Cohen), whom she believes is stalking her in a cutting-edge invisibility suit. The Invisible Man is the rare remake that successfully reboots from the ground up, delivering something so unexpected you almost don’t see it coming.
4. The Wizard of Oz (1939)

3. Ocean’s Eleven (2001)
(Image credit: Warner Bros.)
Eclipsing the Rat Pack is perhaps the greatest Hollywood heist of the century. Over 40 years after the original Ocean’s Eleven, which starred the likes of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., and more, Steven Soderbergh teamed up with A-listers George Clooney, Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, and Julia Roberts for a vibrant remake set in contemporary Las Vegas. Like any tightly bolted plan to rob casino magnates blind, Soderberg’s version of Ocean’s Eleven is clever and charismatic, an escapist gem full of characters we wish to emulate (minus the risk of jail time). The original Rat Pack movie might have class, but the 2001 version has style for days.

1. Heat (1995)
(Image credit: Warner Bros. Pictures)
It all comes down to the diner scene. Michael Mann’s expansive Los Angeles crime epic Heat actually began life from Mann who first developed it as the TV pilot-turned-TV film L.A. Takedown. After L.A. Takedown failed to make significant noise, Mann retooled the script and turned it into Heat, which has become a modern classic in its star-studded showdown between Al Pacino (as a stressed-out LAPD detective) and Robert De Niro (as an unsentimental career criminal). Yes, L.A. Takedown has a similar scene between the same characters, but it absolutely pales in comparison to the electricity that Pacino and De Niro are able to generate.
