Rating: Summary: Epitomized Science Fiction Review: Anyone who thinks that this book is boring and has no value, should simply watch TV. Bradbury wonderfully paints the picture of a utopian society, in which the cosmopolitan population is "protected" from books which may spawn independent thought. Bradbury keeps it short and sweet, but gives enough detail to give the reader a clear picture. Easily one of the best science fiction novels of all time.
Rating: Summary: BBBBOOOORRRRIIIINNNNGGGG Review: Please dont read this book for the good of humanity. If you read this, you will not only fall asleep but you will also just slap yourself in the head when you are finished. The idea behind society "dumbifying" (yes I understand that isn't a word)will never happen because a plethora of people still read books and buildings will NEVER become fire proff due to their being WOOD WHICH IS FLAMMABLE in houses. So then firemen would still have their same old job. BBBBBBBBBOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRIIIIIINNNNNNNNNGGGGGG
Rating: Summary: The Brain washing of a society Review: I WOULD FIRST OF ALL LIKE TO SAY THAT EVEARY ONE HOW PUT TWOS AND ONES AS COMENTS ARE IGNORENT BASTERED. THE MOTIVES OF EVERY CARECTER IN THIS BOOK IS CLEAR. CENCERSHIP HAS ALLREADY DESTOYED YOUR MIND IF YOU CAN NOT APPREACETE THIS BOOK. WE SHOULD ALL THANK BRADBURY FOR THIS GIFT HE HAS GIVEN US. THIS BOOK SHOULD BE WARRING TO EVARY ONE. I AM ONLY 14 AND I COULD UNDERSTAND THIS BOOK BETTER THAN MOST OF THE PEOPLE HERE THINK TO DO. I THINK SOME OF YOU ASSHOLES SHOULD TAKE A SECOND LOOK AT THIS BOOK AND SEE WHAT IT REALLY MEANS. GUY NONTAG IS THE IMAGE OF EVEARY WEEK AND VULERABLE FOOLTHAT WE HUMANS ARE. GUY REPRESENTS MAN. I HOPE TO GOD THAT WE NEVER GO AS LOW AS THIS SOCIETY IS. I HAVE A PROFOUND LOVE FOR GOOD LITATURE AND THIS IS WON OF THE BEST BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ.
Rating: Summary: DONT READ THIS BOOK Review: Ray Bradbury tries to write a bestseller in this boring novel. He keeps the audience in the book for about three pages, then everyone falls asleep. If he could do it again, I think he should have never written books in the first place.
Rating: Summary: Censorship Review: I recently read this remarkable novel and felt that the other commentaries were correct in stating that regardless of cowardly, bitchy, and psyco immigrants we should not censor ANYTHING just because they are offended. Minorities are nothing to be concerned about and should all just drop dead if they complain. Thank you.
Rating: Summary: This book is boring! Review: This book doesn't deserve a maximum of 1,000 words! It is pointless and inconsistent. Don't read it! How could our society ever become one not dependent on books for knowledge and wisdom?
Rating: Summary: Excellent. A great book Review: This book is about a mentally sick, futuristic society. Some of the actions of the people in the book are quite startling. I recomend this book to young adults. It is a good example of what our society should not end up as.
Rating: Summary: Farenheit 451: The relevant and haunting masterpiece Review: Guy Montag is a hero of heroes in this masterpiece of a book. He is a misguided soul who never wonders whether his and his companions' actions are just and right. When the idea of the flaw of his society is introduced, Guy goes on a difficult journey for the truth. This is a book that will stay with you forever.
Rating: Summary: Unbelievably Spectacular and Frightening Review: Bradbury portrays a scary future where fireman don't put out fires, they burn them. He is very detailed with all of his characters and very suspensful. Will they burn Montag's house? Will he kill Beatty? Will he get caught? So many questions that can be answered. This book also forces you to imagine a lot and think. It is an A+ in my book.
Rating: Summary: Science Fiction Genius! Review: This book is one of the best I've read. It gives a frightening look into the future that parallels how we are living now; more and more people are relying on and being "dumbed" by the media instead of reading and finding themselves in books. This book has a definite message while at the same time is very entertaining. I highly recommend it to anyone who thinks!
