To all variety seeker Double Barrel will be an wonderful treatment. After Amen, Lijo Jose Pellisseri comes with a brave attempt in Malayalam Cinema like we've never seen before.A group of gangsters set out in search of two diamonds named "Laila and Majnu", which are worth only when they a together.Even though the story was simple,the movie got international look.Great visuals by Abhinandan Ramanujan by the use of Red Dragon Camera and the variety songs composed by Prashant Pillai are another plus points of the film.The Double Barrel give a feeling of reading a comic book,So we have to see this movie in the mindset of kid to enjoy movie.But don't expect Amen or his other movies.Director's approach towards film making was different from others. LJP doesn't want to make same kind of movies.His each movie is different from one another,in style,story,treatment..etc. Double Barrel is labeled as Gangster spoof film.As a experimental movie of course it has some negatives also.But I don't care about that,for me the movie was a great visual treat and entire cast was awesome-Prithviraj,Indrajith,Asif Ali,Arya..etc.May be it's style was inspired from the movies of Quentin Tarantino and Guy Ritchie. The costumes and style of characters reminded me of famous gangsters in Hollywood.Totally Double Barrel is my cup of tea.I think it's not everyone's cup of tea.I must admit that Double Barrrel is Bold Experimental movie released in Malayalam. Try to watch it in theaters. Lijo Jose Pellissery is Malayalam's original next- generation filmmaker.
