Artyom Fedosov

Impressive exhibitions , futuristic architecture , cool restaurant inside and magnificent sunsets at the terrace . Must visit in Amsterdam.

Arina Pykhalova

Fellini'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!

Adrián Moreno

Amazing 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 !

Melike G

Absolutely 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!

An Na

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 Weinman

Absolutely 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.

Mars Mertens

Incredible 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.

Jeroen Kraan

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!

Maurice

Nice 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).

Jonas de Groot

Great spot! Not just for the movies or the museum . Also enjoy the view , the terrace , the food and drinks by friendly staff .

Richard Findlay

Superb views to be had from this building - interesting free exhibition in basement on history of cinema with original mechanical items (magic lantern/ projectors etc)

Gregory Bolkenstijn

An architectural masterpiece, also on the inside. And the restaurant has some great food and service. Must see if you're in Amsterdam.

Médard Vriend

Fantastic exhibitions and great selection of old and new movies to watch. Also a very nice and unique designed building.

Mykolas Petrauskas

Take 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

Miriam B

Have lunch or cake before/after going to the exhibition or cinema . Lovely view . Take some water with you if you go to a long movie ;-)

Maria Giovanna Sarri

Lovely 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 .

Roberto Bua

Incredible building, even if you're not into architecture you need to see this both from the outside and inside.

John Barnham

The ferry across from Centraal station is free. The building is a great place to hang out and see the interesting people of Amsterdam mingle.

Edo Costa

Don't forget to check the exhibition program, and indulge in a romantic dinner in its restaurant with full view on Amsterdam

Must visit! The architecture is phenomenal! Even just walking around it is lovely, let alone visiting it!

Mahan Parizi

It'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.

Absolutely marvelous exhibition about Martin Scorsese, great cinema and stunning architecture .

Perfect place where you can experience Amsterdam city-view in an alternative place with a glass of wine .

The best thing about Noord is this film museum . I've been to a Quentin Tarantino marathon a while ago, which was awesome! They also play current movies .

A.J. Brahm

Wonderful views , so•so museum/exhibitions. There’s a lunch/dinner cafe and restaurant , too.
