That's a tough call. I almost always prefer the book to the movie, and I for one hated the movie of Mystic River.
I think there was a lot of emotional depth in Jimmie and Dave that you just didn't see in the movie. If you read for characterization, the book is definitely worth the time, even having seen the end.
If on the other hand, you read for the mystery...well, I don't know how much you'd like all the internal angst.
