Two young men who have been friends since early childhood decide to go on a trip to find a third friend who has long since disappeared. Stories they have heard indicate that the friend has been seen in an apparently rambling, incoherent state at Coney Island. Their trip leads them to a number of adventures involving the otherworld-like life at the Park and revelations related to their own pasts including the death of one's sister, a failed past relationship, financial failings, and alcoholism.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Went to Coney Island on a Mission from God... Be Back by Five is an acquired taste at 4.4/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1998. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
