It is useful to begin by saying that the big difference between books and movies is the soundtrack which you do not have in a book. A lot of people like music and in addition to this the music can transmit feelings very well.
In contrast to the movie, if the author wants that you have to 'feel' music, he must write which song is playing; as a result if the reader do not know that song, he will not realize the meanings.
Another point to consider is this: If you want show how rich a family is - family Chasen -, in a movie you must use stereotype - this is negative for the viewer - but in a book you do not need to use stereotype. The reader has to imagine more, he has to use his ownen fantasia.
Personally, I prefer a book if we consider this point.
Finally I want to take into account the angle and the camera range which are important. In a movie, it will be easy to use long shots, extrem close-up, high and low angle, on the contrary, in books the author has to change the narrative perspective.
