- There are too many things to remind one of Kaakha Kaakha (KK) -- the names (Ilamaran, Maya), the actors (Jyothika, Daniel Balaji, Jo's family members), the lingo (poturlaan daa...and all the swear words censored jarringly), loud acting by Daniel Balaji that seemed like a poor imitation of Jeevan's Pandya.
- Not enough background to let us know why they turned into serial killers - one would believe they started the whole thing as some sort of a hobby, that's how shoddy the treatment of their past is! This exploring of rationale / motivation is something Kaadhal Kondaen and Thiruttu Payale does quite well.
- What was it with Homosexualism!! Pointless and an injustice to gay men.
- The incessant killings
- The stock escape situation featured in the Mumbai airport
- The heroic opening that doesn't jel with the rest of the story
- Loud, mood spoiling BGM
- Why does the Hero have to get plain lucky in cornering the guys
- Raghavan instinct, my foot!!!
- The needless romantic angle - perhaps it was necessary because there was not enough powder in the keg.
- The songs - each one slows down the pace.
- The 'pathbreaking medical research' crap blabbered in the end
- The severed finger as a signature - Why should he even do it for all his avowed intelligence and then admit it was a mistake?!!
- How does Kamal figure out where Jyothika has been buried alive? Why is Jo spared torture and rape (apparently...) - In a nurry to wind up the story?
- The confrontation between Amudan and Ragavan in the former's apartment
- The very short introduction between Ragavan and Kayalvizhi in a marriage
- The locations are brilliant, but only partly, as the bgm screws up the mood
- Prakash Raj, kamal for their performance; Kamalini merely for her presence
- The sequence in which Kamal tracks down the body of Prakash Raj's daughter is brilliant: Everything stands out in this, for example the performances - Prakash Raj, the 'beggar' who gives the right leads, Kamal
- The molestation of Amudan and Ilamaran by the eunuchi n the prison cell
- The sniggers among the audience when Kamal says 'neenga homosexualsaa daa?" doesn't bode well. And technically they should have been called bi, but that might have been above our audience!
- The volte-face climax. The film was much better for the happy ending - Otherwise the film's very creation would have been pointless as it would have further sealed the similarity with Kaakha Kaakha
- I am not sure why I am making this comparison: I think Thirutu Payale was a far better movie even after taking into account its sleight of hand and information witholding game it plays with the audience.
