War Of The Worlds The True Story Receiving Rave Reviews

War Of The Worlds The True Story is receiving rave reviews from critics and fans as the movie becomes available for viewing on demand on the internet and on DVD.

Seattle, WA, USA (July 10, 2013) -- The acclaimed sci-fi horror movie War Of The Worlds The True Story, one of 208 pictures eligible for the 85th Academy Awards, has been garnering rave reviews as it is made available for internet streaming rental and to own on DVD at http://www.waroftheworldsthetruestory.com. War Of The Worlds The True Story treats H.G. Wells first ever and most famous alien invasion novel as if it really happened and is presented as a fast paced war docudrama.

Ain't It Cool News critic Ambush Bug raved, "The best film I had the privilege of seeing this week was WAR OF THE WORLDS: THE TRUE STORY." With glowing praise, 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 it up 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."

Gary Goldstein of the Los Angeles Times said, "'War Of The Worlds The True Story' is clever like Wells. Hugely inventive and ambitious, a mock sci-fi docudrama packed with a truly impressive - and clever - mix of editing (a reported 3 1/2 years' worth), special effects, visual artistry and offbeat storytelling." Frank Scheck, critic of The Hollywood Reporter called the movie, "Impressive for its technical achievements. Director/Editor Hines weaves the various styles of footage together in expert fashion."

Shawn Francis critic at You Won Cannes said, "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., writer and critic of the Sacramento Examiner gave the movie 5 out of 5 stars, saying "'War Of The Worlds 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."
