Well, it's a shot-by-shot remake of the original, BY the original director. SO in a way you only need to see one or the other.
I thought it was excellent. It was realistic, disturbing and yet had a very good use of social commentary as well as sort of pointed injokes at fans of so-called "torture-porn." Stylistically, it's great. Wide shots, stationary cameras, no music create a realistic feel... then all the sudden the "fourth wall" is broken for a moment. (you'll see).
And all the acting was great (no surprises there, great cast). See it.
