Arina PykhalovaJuly 8, 2013Fellini's exhibition is amazing! Will advice to everyone who loves his works. You can just sit and enjoy your favorite Fellini's films there. And of course, gorgeous Anita Ekberg as an actress! Enjoy!
- Artyom FedosovJuly 29, 2016Impressive exhibitions, futuristic architecture, cool restaurant inside and magnificent sunsets at the terrace. Must visit in Amsterdam.
Adrián MorenoMarch 22, 2015Amazing scenic views of the water, with great ample and light cafeteria and restaurant. Nice exhibitions about the film world, with some of them free. And it's only 5 minutes from Central Station!
MauriceNovember 12, 2017Nice architecture with a great panoramic cafe inside. Temporary exhibition was rather dissappointing and the permanent one small. I guess its best to combine with a movie (on 70 mm).
Melike GMay 14, 2015Absolutely one of my favorite places in A'dam! If u're in love with cinema, u'll in love with this interactive museum. Also, enjoy the great pub; you can take your drink and hang out on the stairs!
Mars MertensApril 17, 2016Incredible place to have a drink or a good dinner in the evening. Astonishing view on the IJ river and the main city of Amsterdam. And of course the architecture of the building itself.
One of my absolute favorites in Amsterdam. The best thing ever is to stay inside on the stairs and wait for sunset with a good glass of wine.
Evan WeinmanFebruary 18, 2015Absolutely beautiful architecture inside and out. A great place to watch old and new films on the big screen. It also offers a brief history of film and personal pods to watch movies by yourself.
Best cinema in Amsterdam. Compared to other arthouse places the screens and seats are way better and the film selection is usually excellent. The weekend silent films with live music are awesome!
Richard FindlayDecember 6, 2014Superb views to be had from this building - interesting free exhibition in basement on history of cinema with original mechanical items (magic lantern/ projectors etc)
Great spot! Not just for the movies or the museum. Also enjoy the view, the terrace, the food and drinks by friendly staff.- Gregory BolkenstijnMarch 14, 2015An architectural masterpiece, also on the inside. And the restaurant has some great food and service. Must see if you're in Amsterdam.
Fantastic exhibitions and great selection of old and new movies to watch. Also a very nice and unique designed building.
Mykolas PetrauskasJune 27, 2015Take a ferry from the Central station and discover a different side of Amsterdam. The scenery is different, the architecture is different... Enjoy free classic movies in a booth
Don't forget to check the exhibition program, and indulge in a romantic dinner in its restaurant with full view on Amsterdam
Chris CooksonJune 12, 2016There's a lot of cool stuff you can see here for completely free. However they have so many good films scheduled, you'd definitely want to check out a screening.- Maria Giovanna SarriNovember 20, 2018Lovely place for a drink with a view on Amsterdam and on the Ij. Nice rooms to watch the movies and always a good selection of films.
- Remi LefevreMarch 5, 2015The view adds to the simple, flavoursome food of the cafe and the excellence of the exhibitions. Don't miss the quiz booths in the basement!
- Mahan PariziMay 11, 2013It's a very beautiful building with extraordinary architecture and exhibitions rivaling the brilliance of the architecture. You have to take the ferry from central station to get here.
Δάφνη ΡακούνMay 15, 2016I find it really nice that people can enjoy their drinks on the stairs facing the cafe and the canal. Awesome design as well!
Thomas MeijerJune 14, 2015Must visit! The architecture is phenomenal! Even just walking around it is lovely, let alone visiting it!
Serengul&MustafaNovember 17, 2014Perfect place where you can experience Amsterdam city-view in an alternative place with a glass of wine.
John BarnhamJanuary 18, 2015The ferry across from Centraal station is free. The building is a great place to hang out and see the interesting people of Amsterdam mingle.
