Loot Movie Review

LOOT 1: CCTV shot during Bank Robbery.

Loot is a story of five local thugs, challenged by the deficiency of money, which makes them get involved in criminal activities. Haku kaale, the master planner gather these four people (local drug supplier khatri, bouncer/gambler Naren, lover pandey and outrageously comic Gople) to work out for a bank roberry, just five months before the actual day. It is unfair to write if the hard works (months of planning, "Dimaag" works by haaku and the actual roberry by "other four") pays out to fulfill their dream of running a smooth life with the money, for that you have to watch the whole movie in cinema near to you. Much dynamic Camera shots and angles never used in nepali movie is highly distinct and remarkable. Repeated beeps and some uncensored local f words are there to tickle your ear, which are put in such a way that you will notice all those words without sharp concentration to the dialogue.

Dialogues put in local style makes you nostalgic of the moment cherished in your life like the one with boozed chat in "Bhatti" puts you right there in the bhatti. Other dialogues like " Kathmandu sahara herda lagcha rahara....salaaa giddha giddha ko sahara", "Ball haina pasa...Dimaag laga dimaag", and "Poila janchees ja, poila gaera ta her....tero chala ko jacket ra tyasko chalako boot banaera jindagi bhar tyahi layera hidchu" with perfect newari accent by Saugat Malla is damn hilarious, which sets an example that nepali movie dialogues with some creativity works out. But some flaws like unruly flow of story, introduction of characters taking long and the actual climax ended in a very short time misses the thrill in the people of guessing how they are going to do the robbery. Though I dont like full songs in a movie, Item song "Udreko choli" really fits in the movie unlike other songs which i dont even remember the title. All in all, an average action thriller by the plot but superb by creative works proves Nepali movies are growing and its a matter of time that our Kollywood giving peculiar movies set to compete with each and every llywoods in this planet. Here are some stills from the movie.
