Definitely the book. As pointed out by @booklover1980 & Shivani, a movie adaptation cannot give you everything that a book can explore. Consider the thought process of one character, for instance. How do you portray that on screen? Unless you show him/her talking to him/her-self. A book OTOH can bring to words what the character is thinking.
Another point that a friend made when he saw "The Da Vinci Code" movie - those who did not read the book found it difficult to understand it fully; those read the book, found it superficial!
However, from a personal POV, as I don't like reading action & sci-fi books, I would prefer those in the movie or tv adaptations. Because in those cases I prefer visual treat over verbal. |
