Write a reviewFinally, a reincarnation Hollywood story that doesn't rush to make a superstar out of the protagonist. I really love the direction this is going and would love to see the development of Troy. Keep up the good work! I don't know about others, but I love the dark tones you are using in the story.
I’ve really enjoyed it so far; the pacing of the events is perfect, without rushing anything. I also like the MC’s personality. I just hope he isn’t the type of MC who is good at everything. I’ve read other novels where the protagonist acts, sings, writes comics, is a hacker… that makes the story a bit too overpowered. But so far, it’s been really good. I’ve read up to episode 12, and it seems like he’s going to get into singing as well? That’s fine, but I hope his career is more focused on acting with singing as a secondary aspect. Thank you so much for writing this fic, author-sama.
nice but please didn't make the film industry all happy and awesome like other fanfic. .....................................................................
This story has great potential, I can't wait to see where the author takes this story and make this story best...and author Don't Drop midway 🙏🏻🙏🏻
The story is good. The way the story is written is more of like a biography of the MC rather than a novel, in my opinion. The dialogues and acting scenes just exists just to further the monologue. It is not bad if you think of it as it is, since thag is also another way of portraying a story, but if you expected there to be more acting scenes or to dive deeper into the roles, then this story is not it. Like I said every interaction or scene are just a means to further the monologue and not the other way around. And I would it preferred to be the other way around since this is an Acting Story. However, that is just my opinion and personal preference tho. Now for the world builiding. I found it lacking especially in dimension and depth. Hollywood or just the movie world in paticular is very deep and diverse, it wasn't portrayed well in this story or dived deep enough. If I were to suggest references of Hollywood-type novels/stories where they might not be perfect but I personally believe has grasped the essense of Hollywood genre or Acting Stories, they would be: Legendary Actor, & Legendary Hollywood Director. Both are translated by Shallowman here in Webnovel. Now for the main character itself, I find it very hard to connect with him since he acts like a child most of the time. He has the temperament of child when actually he has the soul of an old man literally. You can ignore it most of the time, but can be cringe when you think about it sometimes how he acts like a kid when he's that grown. But that is still a personal opinion and a valid one. You can hear what you want to hear, but believe this review came from a good place and intentions.
There are some good novels in the webnovel about acting My Hollywood System hollywood system: art Tycoon Actor in Hollywood Hollywood King The Legendary Actor that I hope will light your way to complete your masterpiece, although I have not read it yet, but I am really excited.
you know, you are somewhat of a competitor to me cause i too translate a Hollywood/Entertainment novel(xD), but your novel is awesome enough for me to give you both of my powerstones... while not much has happended considering that I have written this review at just 12 chaps but i like the direction that the author has taken plus the trope that author has written is very unique and i have never seen such a trope even if I have almost all the entertainment novels... hopefully the author continues writing this novel and doesn't drop it...
A story about Hollywood I like not to rush to develop It is better to have innovation in stories if he entered the field of writing or entered the field of business such as modifying a movie that lost because of a mistake or the like It is better to see the reaction of people to his actions and actions
Top tier fanfiction work. Really interesting and is written on simple language. U can sense that author put his all in this work. Good joob!
La verdad es una gran historia. Pero es muy lenta, pensar que estoy por el capítulo 70 y aún en un chico de 12 años… Aún así me gusto y pude continuar leyendo, pero ahora que agregó mas drama con un OC que al parecer ahora va a ocupar gran parte de la historia, siento que esto solo va a ser más lento. Si estoy hubiera seguido solo con Troy sin enfocarme mucho más en otros entonces podría haber seguido aceptando lo lenta que es la historia porque está bien escrita. Pero ahora ya no estoy interesado en seguir leyendo esto. Aún así recomiendo que la lean ya que es interesante y esta bien hecha.
This is pretty good, I'm giving it 4.2 Tho little warning, I would not really consider this a 'Transmigration', the MC has some memories of his past life but none of the emotional experiences, which means he is ACTUALLY a kid maturity wise. This caught me off guard tbh, I expected an adult in a child's body. Also, it's not THAT big of a deal but there are moments where the story drags on a bit due to over explanation of events.
Awesome story thx for writing. Most interesting reincarnation memories recollections. Would recommend
I really like the story, the characters are interesting and well developed. And above all I love the theme of reincarnation in the past of our world and not in a fantasy world. I highly recommend reading this story ! And finally, thank you for writing and posting these chapters so quickly for us ! 🤩🤩🤩
Decent read. But it feels like mc doesnt utilize his future knowledge. Like the 9/11, he could have at least hinted his friends family not to travel or made up an excuse at that period but he completely forgot about it. I also dislike how greedy he is for roles. It is unrealistic to take all these projects with HP. As i recall, WB had to do all the films as close as possible to capture films while the actors are still youthful. And with all the work into it, a sane human being wouldnt take several projects on top of that so theres time to rest. Even if mc doesnt go to school anymore, its hard to imagine having time to shoot that much and have stage plays as well. Theres rehersals and training on top of everything after all
Can't wait to read what you will do with this story. Great Start btw. Looking forward to new chapters,.......................................
