Ginnen Upan Seethala

Without a doubt one of the Best Biographical Movies made in Sri Lankan Movie history. Acting, Directing, Music, cinematography & The Story was good. No Wonder It got nominated for Oscars 2019. Many people may find this movie irritating or misleading based on their political view. But for a Movie fan, This is Just a quality 2 & half hours of cinematography Well done. Hope to see this type of great movies in the fututre, where the director & the crew has shown great commitment & creativity rather than the boring history type movies that are made on the sole intention of earning money. Hope This film is the turning point! Not the best biographical movie ever, but for sri lankan standards these days, exceeds expectations big time.

Despite the amazing cinematography, almost all the scenes feels like they are in a hurry to quickly tell you what happened and then move on. Kamal's voice jumps between his own and the one he's trying to imitate and many characters feels one dimensional IMO. But as a Sri Lankan born after a decade past this period, although I enjoyed every moment and learned the historic incidents, the way they are delivered definitely didn't create an 'emotional blast' inside my mind, which it should have. Frozen Fire would've been exceptional as a 'documentary', but for a two and half hour movie, it could've deliver more.

As we know 89 era had so many virulence from JVP side also but in this movie Director and writer didn't touch that side much, Whoever bone after 89 and watch this movie they will surly get only the good side of the JVP.

The Frozen Fire has attracted everyone regardless of the age, ethnicity or the political party they're attached to. This isn't a film about JVP but it educates you on the movement. It's unbelievable how the whole audience is moved and almost takes part in the film. And we're fortunate that after many years Sri Lankan cinema has been successful in reaching a standard that it had never had before in the cinematic history of 70+ years. Excellent!!!

Better research about the main character and background. Good picture quality product. Acting also perfect. Best Biographical film. Love it.
