First of all, I loved the 1989 The Killer. I think it was one of John Woo's best work. The other was Hard Boiled. I appreciated the emotions conveyed a little bit more than the action. I think the actions were there to push up the emotions.
One overarching theme in the 1989 original was "redemption". Chow Yun-Fat's character was seeking redemption because he caused the singer to go permanently blind. So his actions throughout the films kept me enthralled to see if his actions would lead to his ultimate redemption. However, this remake took a different direction. Other than a few shared elements, it's a completely different film.
This remake was a great fast pace action-flick. It was plot driven, unlike the original (if you take away Chow Yun-Fat's character, there's no story). In this one if you take away the killer, the good cop could still carry the plot forward.
Overall, it was a fun watch. The ending was happy and satisfying. It felt like John Woo was giving us an alternate ending to the original without ruining it. The killer, singer, and the good cop's fate ended much differently in this one.

I've read the whole english version of Remembrance of the Earth's Past trilogy before watching this show. Never watched the Chinese version. When writing this, I'm only up to episode 6.
Overall, it's a decent adaptation. Not a direct adaptation. Characters were set up decently. The pacing is similar to the first book. However, it wasn't as emotionally gripping. Emotional beats were subtle, like BBC shows.
The huge flaw of the series is that young-Ye Wenji encounters were not heavy-handed compared to the novel. In the novel, many people (I think mainly were CCP members) she encountered were selfish petty despicable hypocrites. And she went through a lot and saw the dark side of humanity firsthand, not just the Cultural Revolution scene in the trailer. Thus, made me sympathized her decision and her action to protect that decision. I hate the "humanity" in her eyes with her when reading.
That segment was too tamed. It wasn't intense enough to make me lose faith in humanity to the point that I sympathized her decision.
I hope the upcoming season or seasons would be less tamed and more intense.
