Fahrenheit 451 (2018) depicts a near-future where books are banned and firemen burn any that are found. Guy Montag (Michael B. Jordan) begins to doubt his society after meeting the free-thinking Clarisse (Sofia Boutella) and witnessing a powerful act of intellectual resistance. Under Captain Beatty's (Michael Shannon) iron rule, Montag questions his role, seeks truth, and joins a covert circle that values knowledge over control. A brisk, visually striking meditation on censorship and conformity.
