...very surprised at the lack of love Insomnia is getting on here.  If there is ever a "Top 5 American re-makes of Foreign movies from the 90's - 00's" list, Insomnia should be an automatic on there.  I can't believe so many people have The Prestige so high and Insomnia so low.  Grrr!

I don't think it's a lack of love so much as his other films are so frickin' awesome.

I still have not seen the original Insomnia, but it does at least show that re-makes are not all badly done. I would definitely put it in that Top 5 list.
