25 best movie remakes ever

3:10 to Yuma (2007)

This western to revive westerns has everything: gun-slinging, morals and a bad-to-the-bone bad guy in the form of Ben Wade (Russell Crowe). There's some brilliantly tense scenes as a group of everyday ranchers trek to the town of Contention and then wait for the damn train that's going to take the shackled Wade to Yuma prison. It'll keep you on edge in the same way the 1957 original starring Glenn Ford does – even if you never can quite decide who to root for.
