They don't make these live action films to "improve" on the original. They make them because of nostalgia. It's easy money, and a fun way to revisit things from the animated movie, without having to rewatch the animated movie. If you don't think of it as a "remake" (because it's really not), you'd probably be able to enjoy it somewhat.
