Books are almost always better for a person with time and an interest in reading because the main influence in ruining a movie [budget] is largely removed. It costs vastly less to add an explosion-heavy action scene to a book than it does to a movie. A lot of the frustration people feel towards movie adaptions of novels are manifestations of money and time constraints. I'm currently reading a novelization of the movie Aliens. I kinda like the idea of going to other direction and novelized a film. If the author handles it correctly it's a great way to flesh out a movie.
