Aloko Udapadi (2017)

Aloko Udapadhi, a master piece by Chathra.

For the last couple of years many pointed failures in Sri Lankan film industry. Aloko Udapadhi has proved that it is not going to be the same anymore. This film successfully handle the blend of traditional film shooting and CGI graphics. Music, Casting, and locations are magnificent.

Story line is great. Flow of the story from begin to end can be watched without any distraction.

If you are a Sri Lankan you must watch this film and witness the great come back of Sri Lankan film industry.

Fmovies: It is a Cinematic masterpiece in Sinhala Cinema.

During recent times we witnessed a lot of Sinhala movies with a Historical story line. But None of the movies were able to create such "Realness" and "Liveness" in their visuals. With some astonishing camera work and some stunning choice of locations, this movie has produced some excellent cinematic which were never evident in movies which came before.

To a generation that have seen, English movies like "Lord of the Rings", Aloko Udapadi will be promising that Sinahala Cinema will soon match their expectations of a Historical movie.

However the mediocre Script leads the movie to a series of unconnected scenes (despite a spot on opening part) with no effort to exaggerate the key milestone of the movie which could have made the viewer kept more emotionally attached to the movie. Yet it will not be enough to prevent one from saying that Aloko Udapadi is the best thing happened to the Sinhala Cinema in recent times.

While saying that this is a good movie, the rating of 9.9 at the moment is not well deserved. It is a result of facebook campaign (not launched by the film crew, but Sri Lankan patriotic manner). I'd rather give 6.

Let's talk about good of that film.

The portrayal of the ancient Sri Lankan society and the reign is impeccable and realistic. It is pretty obvious that the director knows what he is doing. He has done his research on it. The attention to the details is appreciable. Surely this film set the bar up for the Sri Lankan movies and for the trending historic movies as well. One of the best things in this film is the minimum use of CGI. For the last years, most of the sinhala films ruined the cinema quality due to crappy CGI (Sri Lankan film industry is not huge enough to afford high end CGI techs). In this film they have used appropriate amount of Graphics in a good way. Kudos for that. Last but not list, the screen writer is a top notch as he was able to deliver the message that in a war there is a tragedy under that victory and ithas to be carried out with a lot of patience. This movie has to be applaud with a huge success at box office.

Aloko Udapadi fmovies. Watch this brilliant movie last weekend. Which I have to say is done very well. Great acting by most actors, great music and reasonably good action scenes as well. As it is about a true incident in the Sri Lankan history as a fellow Sri Lankan it touched me on most emotional scenes.

The use of computer graphics and 3D models were quite minimum. Which is a good thing as they were not that great.

Getting the participation of actual monks for the movie was a great idea by the way. It made it feel much more realistic.

Again props to the actors,actresses, music composer and specially the Director. Well done guys. Proud of you.
