So, they are either good...or they are done by Tim Burton? ;)
Honestly, I put down the first two films that jumped out to me as terrible remakes. Swear. ;-)
In the interest of not singling out Burton, these two also come to mind; Bad News Bears & The Taking Of Pelham 1 2 3.
Both seemed to have singled out the part of the story that appeals most to profit margins (understandable), but completely lost the emotional & cerebral side of the films - which make the originals (to me) much better films.
