That's quite difficult to say without doing some serious, DXO-like study of film (noise, resolution, etc)...
From my personal experience, I'd rather say that film is waaaaaaay more forgiving than digital...
I've never experienced a badly exposed negative (apart from the occasional user stupidity, my fault!).
And a good scanner can easily retrieve a huge dynamic range, going from candles on your child birthday cake to the darkest shadows of the room without a fuss, or a noon sunlight/shadow situation.
I've even salvaged a day-at-the-beach pic were I forgot the flash (sync at 1/125) where the exposure would have been 1/4000 !!! That's a +5ev overexposure!!! And the resulting pic was perfectly usable for a small 4x6 print, without any blown parts (but nothing bigger, as the noise was really high, the negative being nearly black!).
The following situation would have been really hard on a DSLR, I think...
It would have required more PP to achieve the same result.
BUT digital is way cleaner, so you can retrieve more information from the shadows. My k20 @ 3200iso is easily on par with a good 400iso negative, noise-wise. But this is all done in PP, so it's a little more tedious to do, and you have to nail the exposure just right...
I'd say that the biggest drawback of digital is the highlight clipping. Once you max out, there is nothing left but white. But its strong side is the low noise, thus better shadows.
