Exquisite corpse: review

Fahrenheit 451 tells the story of a man called Montag, who used to have five books, but one day, he meets a girl who shows him how books were important. It is interesting how the story presents that people can access to knowledge through books, but in a specific future society its government is interested in banning and burning books to maintain its power over society. The dialogs on the story were complex, but sometimes surrealistic. On the other hand, the characters in this novel were not able to make me feel touched. There was created an idyllic environment in which there is full abstraction. The film of this novel portraits a futuristic city in which the train goes through the air. It is the main transportation. Also, forests are all around the city. Honestly, the special effects were the best part of the movie, if we were in 1966 it would be different. Too, the film was a good adaptation of the book, but there were some scenes mixed up. About customs design, they represent the 60s. And finally, I think it is a good film, but the plot could be less boring and quicker.
