I saw the japanese version a while back for my japanese class. I thought it was really good. Remake will probably suck though. Theres just somethings that dont work culturally.

The Japanese version worked because of the cultural context, and the American version failed due to that lack of cultural context. Due to that, they tried to put in melodramatic elements that cheapened the movie and made it horrible in general.
