Poll: What is the best American remake of a foreign language film?

Films like Oldboy, Downhill, and Godzilla have one thing in common – they confirm Hollywood’s unoriginality. The American remake carries a dreaded reputation, so much so we sometimes overlook the possibility for success. Who’s to say if Michael Bay’s latest Ambulance (based off the Danish film Ambulancen from director Laurits Munch-Petersen) will become one of those successes, but the successes are out there, and we shouldn’t ignore them. This poll isn’t a list of remakes that are better than their foreign counterparts, but ones that weren’t simple cash grabs, gave their cast and crew creative license to craft something interesting, and were, for lack of a better term, good.

What do you think is the best American remake of a foreign language film?
