Man on Fire.

Although the Denzel Washington version was actually a remake of a truly appalling original.

But they buggered up the remake too, just not as bad.

Towards the end of his life, the once incredibly talented Tony Scott's films became unwatchable. The fast edits and constant changes in formats were enough to give a viewer seizures.

Speaking of talented Scotts, Tony's brother Ridley needs to remake Prometheus since he screwed the first one up so much. Never had I more looked forward to a film and been more disappointed by the end result than I was watching that POS.
