True Grit (2010) - 8/10 (within my Top 61 movies)
vs
True Grit (1969) - 4/10 (below average)
pretty big gap in quality from original to remake there which is probably the largest gap between a original and a remake for me most likely.

it's Infernal Affairs (2002) but that movie is forgettable simply because it's cast don't have the screen presence that The Departed (2006) does. i think that's pretty much the bottom line.
The Departed (2006) - 7/10 (within my Top 199 movies)
Infernal Affairs (2002) - 5/10 (Thumbs Down)

I had no idea that was a remake. IMDb confirms it, though, but doesn't list the original foreign one. Was it any good? Who was in it?
