Interestingly most of the books I've read have never been turned into movies. There are only two exceptions that I can recall at the moment, and in both cases I saw the movie first: 2010 and The Lost World (JP).

Neither movie were as good as their book counterparts, but at the same time I didn't feel they were bad either.

EDIT: Oh right, I also read The Time Machine. Book first this time. The newer movie had its share of thrills, but left me with an empty feeling. The old movie was good though.
