| ==Plot==
| |
| [[Laila and Majnu]] are two precious stones, which has value only if they are together. It is now possessed by an underworld don in [[Goa]], who tries to sell it, in order not to lose it to his son, Gabbar, whom he despises. Don approaches two lowly thugs, Pancho and Vinci and offers it for a price of ₹10 crores. They agree and ask for a week's time to arrange the money. Billy, who is Gabbar's man, comes to know of this and offers Pancho and Vinci ₹100 crores to buy it. Pancho and Vinci gets ₹5 crores from Blacky, which actually belongs to the Tarkovs (the Russian mob in Goa). For the remaining ₹5 crores, they plan to rob the black money of Podiyadis (a local [[hawala]] gang in Kerala). While the deal happens, things get mixed up and lead to a big gang war between all the groups.

| ===Critical response===
| |
| Veeyen of ''Nowrunning.com'' rated 1.5/5 and criticized the script, musical score, humour and direction, while concluding as "'Double Barrel' sends the spoof genre on a downward spiral with a relentlessly unexciting script. Real crazy indeed".<ref>{{cite web|author=Veeyen|title=Double Barrel Review|url=http://www.nowrunning.com/movie/15473/malayalam/double-barrel/5197/review/|publisher=Nowrunning.com|date=30 August 2015|accessdate=23 November 2015}}</ref> Moviebuzz of ''[[Sify.com]]'' heavily criticized the film and described it as a "flawed experiment", adding that, "The script is messy and some of the characters are so badly written that they just come and go in between without any impact in the whole narrative. The overindulgence of the makers is evident, ignoring the hapless viewers in the process".<ref>{{cite web|author=Moviebuzz|title=Double Barrel|url=http://www.sify.com/movies/double-barrel-review-Telugu-pi3rDMeefhaef.html|publisher=[[Sify.com]]|date=30 August 2015|accessdate=23 November 2015}}</ref> ''IndiaGlitz.com'' rated 1.5/5 stars stating that "'Double Barrel' not only is the content insane, so is the presentation", and said that the film fails to engage.<ref>{{cite web|author=IndiaGlitz|title=Double Barrel Movie Review - All Bangs But No Fire|url=http://www.indiaglitz.com/double-barrel-malayalam-movie-review-19446.html|publisher=Indiaglitz.com|accessdate=23 November 2015|date=August 29, 2015}}</ref> Asha Prakash of ''[[The Times of India]]'' rated 2.5/5 stars and said "Other than the visual spectacle of seeing some major actors in the industry in their clownish avatars in the most impressive of settings, there is nothing much to engage the viewer. The shooting and killing seem never-ending and the jokes tedious".<ref>{{cite news|author=Asha Prakash|title=Double Barrel Movie Review|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movie-reviews/Double-Barrel/movie-review/48731110.cms|accessdate=23 November 2015|agency=[[The Times of India]]|date=30 August 2015}}</ref>
