Hitlist blends emotions and actions in a correct way to attract the audience. The second part of the film brings the emotional side and gives the audience a clear view of the story. 

The actors Sarath Kumar and Gautham Vasudev Menon delivered amazing performances in the movie. All the actors portrayed their roles convincingly. The background music in the climax was excellent and the unexpected twist in the climax made the movie an effective watch.

The movie reminds the Hollywood movie Saw and its franchise. If the person already watched the Saw movie and its franchise, then the Hitlist plot is easily predictable and ruins the surprises the movie had.

The movie's background music (BGM) was lacking in some areas and did not live up to the hype of the trailer. The antagonist's masked man could have been more menacing, as in some scenes, his appearance did not pose a threat to the audience.
