We watched an impressive impactful movie here as part of the World Cinema Amsterdam movie event: Seven Winters in Tehran. It's great to have film theaters like Rialto that give room for purpose- driven non commercial stories that give food for thought and conversation afterwards. The theater looks authentic old as and cosy. The rooms are medium size. Nothing too fancy. But our movie made sure you don't need or miss any of that.
Awesome cinema, love this building and program, easy to find English movie, prices and caffe are okay.
We went to Rialto for the World Cinema Amsterdam movie event 🎥. Cool building in a nice neighbourhood with lots of atmosphere. There are also some restaurants and cafes close by. Parking is a bit troublesome and expensive, better to go with public transportation. …
Small cinema, it is very comfortable but of course not the best quality. This is not accepted from here as well. We love to watch movies here
Small cinema with nice spaces and good selection of movies. Comfortable spaces, clean toilets, warming welcome, nice bar.
A great historical cinema in a beautiful building. They show a lot of independent movies and sometimes organize special events. And they accept cineville cards!
Very good cinema 🎥, tiny but charming. There is also a bar 🍺. …
So great to have so many movies at arms length with nice atmosphere bar. A movie community center run by volunteers
Beautiful and cozy cinema. Not a trendy place so there are always seats left. The place is run by volunteers so there is a beautiful community feeling. Drinks and snacks available for sale; bar with draft beer and wine. Prices for food & drinks are reasonable.
If you don’t care for popcorn or cup holders, then this theater will suit you. Cool place for date as it does have a cafe downstairs to grab a drink pre movie screening.
Movie was good quality and sound was there. Low score is personally due to lacking of movie theater amenities which I enjoy with the experience; such as movie theater food and cup holders on seats… you either hold on to your drink the whole time or place it on the ground.
