That's a good way to put it...
Psycho remake was damn near word for word but it wasn't all that good. The director for the Dawn of the Dead took the story and did his own thing(fast zombies,more characters,besides Ving Rhames..who was only loosely based on Peter.. complete removale of characters ect.) and made what I think is a very good movie.
Like I said,that's a good way to look at it but a movie has been made better than it's book on many occassions. With the exception of 'The Thing' I've yet to see a remake overtake an original.
