The main character should and could have been shown in depth. They just do things the plot wants to do without any backstory or development. The power struggle between the antagonists are highlighted in the movie but isn't shown in depth and isn't believable. There is no flow from one scene to another and the viewer isn't really made aware of how the story leads to each scene. The movie just takes some scenes from the history books and join them together. There is no real plot development or depth. The action could have been better in terms of choreography but is still good. Uddika Premaratne does a good job with the screen time he is given and the supporting cast is also good. It gives the chills to any Sri Lankan who is watching it.As I mentioned before the technology used is next level for Sri Lankan cinema. The movie has good camera-work and decent music. Hats off to Chatra Weeraman for stepping up. It is ahead of any Sri Lankan movie ever created in terms of technology. Aloko Udapadi marks a milestone in Sri Lankan cinema. This is a good movie but definitely not the best Sinhala movie.
I don't understand the reviewers here glorifying this as the best Sinhala movie ever.
