Fight Club. I've read the book, the film was .. different and better in some ways. Very much not a disappointment.
Sunshine. This might be my favourite movie. It's excellent. Space done right. Not from a book.
~~Fightclub is a movie that's adapted from a book. OP asked for movies like your second answer. Guess that's why you're being downvoted~~
Obviously I misread
Hang on, in the last paragraph OP says if you know of a movie that is better than the original source book/comic, then it qualifies as a suggestion
