Gladiator comes to mind. I love this film and it's a part of the few films I actually watch at least once every year.

Well not really a remake ... The Departed is the American version of the Hong Kong film trilogy

The Garden State

Yay, my favourite film! I know it's really girly, but it's one of very few films like this that I actually "get", and that means something to me. It's also hilarious in places

Would also recommend Crash, Gladiator, Pan's Labyrinth (as has everyone else!), Inside Man, Lucky Number Slevin, There Will Be Blood and the Truman Show, which is only very slightly outside your 10 year barrier!
