Yes, Hermione is much more emotional and vulnerable in the books.
Almost for the entire PoA she was on the verge of tears, being
overloaded with work and upset that the boys didn't talk to her ;-(.
All this was lost in the movie. In the book she was on the defensive
about her cat, but in the movie, when Ron told her that Crookshanks
ate Scabbers, she just said "rubbish" very dismissively, and this was
it :-). 

Also, book!Hermione seems funny to me sometimes, she makes me giggle
when she nags the boys to do their homework, or when she gets too
enthusiastic about SPEW and other stuff like that :-). Movie/Hermione
is never funny (except for the first movie, maybe), she is too tense
and over-dramatic. I don't want to say anything bad about Emma, BTW, I
kind of like her, although she is not *exactly* Hermione that I have
in my head :-). Unfortunately, I don't always understand what she is
saying, but that's OK - I understand Rupert Grint even less :-).
