Quality-conscious film club |
Prinsensgt. 16 Oslo 0152 Norway |
Cinemateket is a highly quality-conscious film club located on the same premises as the Sult café and the Film Study Centre. Its two screens, Lillebil and Tancred, show both old and new classics, as well as films that are too specialised or "arty", or otherwise deemed unfit for municipal cinemas. The "jack-in-the-box" nights (when you don't know what film is going to be shown, are especially popular. The club also hosts the annual Films From The South festival. During holiday seasons, members can invite guests in on their membership cards. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The best cinema in Oslo |
Fr. Nansensvei 6 Oslo 0369 Norway |
This is the, "grand cinema" of Oslo, just a five-minute walk from Majorstuen underground station. The old, heritage listed building with its characteristic dome has recently been refurbished. Colosseum is a multiplex with four screens; the grand hall with a digital TXH sound system is perhaps the cinema in Oslo that gives the best and most thorough movie experience. There is a café and kiosk. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Cinema in seafront complex Aker Brygge |
Bryggeritorget 3 Oslo 0250 Norway +47 82 03 0001 |
Felix, located within the seafront entertainment complex Aker Brygge, is a modern cinema aimed at people in their twenties and thirties. It screens alternative, somewhat aggressive movies. In spite of the central location, there is usually a relaxed atmosphere in this open, spacious cinema. Easy to get to from nearby subway and tram stops, this comfortable cinema is close to a number of cafés and restaurants. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Elegant cinema in the centre of Oslo |
Stortingsgata 16 Oslo 0161 Norway +47 82 03 0001 http://www.filmweb.no/oslokino... |
Filmteatret in Stortingsgata is housed in the old premises of Det Norske Teater, hence its name. It is one of only two cinemas in the city that have a balcony. The recently restored building gives an impression of style and elegance usually not associated with cinemas. The repertoire includes mainstream, high-quality films, mainly aimed at a mature audience. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Cinema in the centre of Oslo |
Olav Vs gate 4 Oslo 0161 Norway http://www.filmweb.no/oslokino... |
Klingenberg is located by Nationaltheatret underground station, right across the street from Saga cinema; but it is run for a slightly older audience than its "big sister". Klingenberg often shows films aimed at a mature and especially motivated audience. Many of the most hyped American films are shown here as well. This cinema has four screens, amongst them a spacious grand hall that is seldom full. Review © 2007, Wcities |
 Where something is always happening |
Torggaten 16 Oslo 0181 Norway +47 2220 3232 http://www.rockefeller.no/ |
Black is the color of choice here, and the walls were those of Oslo's city swimming pool in the 1930s. Rockefeller is the main concert venue for both local and famous bands that prefer a more intimate setting for gigs. With a capacity of 1,400 people, Rockefeller is also used for TV shows, rock cinema, literature evenings and various club nights. Even though it can accommodate more than 1,000 people, the atmosphere is still intimate because the place is split into several levels. Special events are held throughout the year here and at John Dee, its sister spot. Claim a cozy nightspot for a cold winter's night. Check out the newspaper Dagbladet for what is going on at the moment. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Family cinema in the middle of the city |
Stortingsgata 28 Oslo 0161 Norway http://www.filmweb.no/oslokino... |
With its six screens in the heart of the city, the Saga multiplex is perhaps the largest and most important movie theatre in Oslo. This is a family cinema that shows a wide variety of films, both Norwegian and foreign. Filmeffekten, a film memorabilia shop, is located in the lower hall at Saga. If you are lucky, you might also meet Småen - the funniest ticket collector in the city! Review © 2007, Wcities |
