My reaction was the opposite of the naysayers...

I was not a fan of the original; I saw it once when I took the kids to the drive-in back in the day, and I've managed to avoid it since. Since my wife HAD to see this remake, that meant I got to as well....
This version was better than the original on all fronts. The photography was stunning, the 'live action' CGI was flawless, and the 'speaking' aspects were very naturalistic. I don't get how people think that this version was 'heartless' or 'emotionless' - it didn't beat you over the head with cartoonish overacting, but I consider that a plus.
See it.
