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

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.
