Seattle, WA, USA (July 15, 2013) -- Founded and operated by Harry Knowles, Ain't It Cool News is a website that earned the admiration of Peter Jackson and Steve Jobs and who's reviews can make or break Hollywood movies, lavished enthusiastic praise to the much lauded War OF The Worlds The True Story, a movie critics and fans alike have been raving about.
WAR OF THE WORLDS THE TRUE assumes an Earth/Mars War actually occurred in the year 1900 and is presented as the fast paced eyewitness memoir of journalist Bertie Wells, the last living survivor as he struggles to find his wife amidst the destruction of humankind at the hands of terrifying alien invaders.
Ain't It Cool News editor and critic Ambush Bug raved, "The best film I had the privilege of seeing this week was WAR OF THE WORLDS: THE TRUE STORY." Raining down love, he went on to say things such as, "Even the sci fi effects feel authentic with all of the shaky and grainy camerawork. I especially loved watching the attacks of both the aliens and the giant machines which have a SKY CAPTAIN & THE WORLD OF TOMORROW look to them. Everything is treated with a serious and dire tone and there's even a touching love story in the middle of it all as well to add an extra bit of depth that, coming from the narrator's POV, will definitely make your heart swell." He then summed up his review by saying, "WAR OF THE WORLDS: THE TRUE STORY is one of the coolest little films I've come across in quite a while. As if the Orson Welles radio broadcast wasn't mythic enough, along comes this mock-doc to add a whole new layer of intrigue to H.G. Wells' fascinating story. Highly recommended to those who love revisionist history, alien invasion films, and thrilling real life documentaries." Read the full review here: http://www.aintitcool.com/node/63169#6.
The latest rave review of War OF The Worlds The True Story by Ain't It Cool News joins the growing critics and fans that have found the film worthy and repeatedly watchable. Critic Gary Goldstein of the Los Angeles Times said, "'War of the Worlds The True Story is clever like Wells. Hugely inventive and ambitious." Frank Scheck, critic of The Hollywood Reporter said the movie is, "Impressive for its technical achievements...Director/Editor Hines weaves the various styles of footage together in expert fashion." And just in, Dave Reneke on his top site out of Australia raved, "I loved this movie, not because it's based on an all time favourite but because it's the ultimate 'what if?' movie…. and it gives me an unexpected end to Wells original story. Buy it, watch it, and relive the classic. You won't be sorry!"
Shawn Francis critic of You Won Cannes lavished, "Ever since the 1953 movie adaptation of War Of The Worlds there have been numerous other translations of Wells' novel, even a 1988 short lived TV series, but of all the ones I have seen the only two-yes, only two-I find worthy of repeated viewings is the '53 film and this new 2013 docudrama."

Steven Rose Jr. of the Sacramento Examiner gave the movie 5 out of 5 stars and said, "'The True Story' carries the suspense and drama of both the 1953 movie and Spielberg's 2005 version but in a more realistic manner through its documentary style."
