There are layers to adaptations.

It's possible for an adaptation to only loosely stick to the script of the source material and still capture the spirit of it brilliantly. This type of adaptation will appeal to some fans and turn off others, depending on what's been changed and how important it was to the individual.

In other cases, it's obvious that the people making the adaptation don't actually like or understand the source material that much. In those cases if the movie is good anyway, they'd be better off just calling it something else. Maybe through in an "inspired by" if they're afraid of being accused of ripping off the other story. Otherwise, you've disappointed fans of the original work and fans of your work are equally bound for disappointment if they check out the original.

Either way, it's possible for a movie to be a questionable adaptation and also a good movie. It's also valid for someone to not like an otherwise good movie because the way it adapted the source material didn't work for them.
