Once in a while, you get a remake that stands up well when viewed against the strength of the original. For me, one of those was "Point Blank", the 1967 original starred Lee Marvin, Angie Dickinson, Carroll O`Connor, Keenan Wynne
A criminal named Walker (Marvin) is double -crossed and left for dead during a heist, but survives, and spends his days extracting revenge on those who wronged him.
At the time, it was considered to be an above-average crime drama.
The remake was titled "Payback", and starred Mel Gibson, Gregg Henry, and Maria Bello, with cameos by Kris Kristofferson and James Coburn. This film followed the original formula quite closely, and turned out well, IMHO.
