Loiri's career in movies started in 1962. Young Loiri had a leading role in Mikko Niskanen's film Pojat (1962), which brought him a Diplomat of Merit at the Jussi Awards (Finnish Oscars). After the film he didn't take any other film roles in many years, before his return at the end of the 1960s. From 1960s he has been playing mainly comedy roles.
