Looty Movie Review

What happens when a gang of friends loot money from a bank in Hyderabad just a few months before demonetization to lead a luxurious life? Will they succeed in their mission or will they face the music for committing the crime?

The plot seems to be clear since the word go, as every character in the film is behind money - except the cops and a rag picker. A gang successfully manages to rob money from a bank, but the bag reaches to the hands of a woman rag picker, leading to a series of misadventures. On the other hand, there is a another group leading a happy life by committing petty crimes who get to know about this stolen money and also end up in the pursuit for the same. Meanwhile, a police squad led by diligent officer Durga Bhavani launches a massive operation too. What follows next is the rest of the plot/
Director Girish Kamplapur's attempt to churn out a thriller by keeping a bank robbery as the theme falls flat. Perhaps, if he had concentrated more on robbery operation and on investigative angle it might been a better watch. The story lacks the intensity to keep one on the edge of the seat. Untimely songs fail to create any impact either. The comic element too fails to bring in the respite.
Khallas girl Isha Koppikar makes an impressive return to Sandalwood as the tough cop. She even sizzles on screen with an item number. Swetha Pandit makes her presence felt. B Jayashree shines in her role as a rag picker.
