I currently have a long list of 46 films which I think are better and more enjoyable than the Ghostbusters remake, and I didn't think it was that bad!

Some moments were quite amusing, the cast had decent chemistry, and the effects were excellent. The only thing which really annoyed me was the extended IMAX version I saw when the proton streams went over the letterboxed black lines at the top and bottom of the screen.

The all-star version of The Magnificent Seven (1960) is a remake of Seven Samurai, just as A Fistful of Dollars is a remake of Yoimbo.

You really need to see A Fistful of Dollars – it's a great spaghetti Western.

It doesn't matter if you've seen the original film as this topic is about ranking 10 remakes you like. I haven't seen The Front Page (1931), but His Girl Friday will probably be in my top 10, as will Heat and I haven't seen L.A. Takedown.
