Tom Keogh Seattle Times Hoogendijk breathes life into this compelling reality drama. Rated: 3.5/4 Jul 30, 2015 Full Review Martin Tsai Los Angeles Times If nothing else, patience has rewarded Hoogendijk and moviegoers with an inside look at an art administration without common sense. Jul 4, 2015 Full Review Michael O'Sullivan Washington Post Unexpectedly, it works. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 2, 2015 Full Review Dave White Linoleum Knife A weirdly watchable glimpse at the agonizingly long process of getting anything accomplished in The Netherlands. Rated: 3/5 Jul 3, 2015 Full Review Landon Palmer Film School Rejects How do you properly "restore" a site dedicated to preserving and displaying centuries of culture and history? [The film] details this impossible task, and it's thrilling. Rated: A- Jun 2, 2014 Full Review Jamie S. Rich Oregonian Unsurprisingly, tedious boardroom meetings are as tedious to watch as to participate in. Rated: 2.5 Apr 7, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member A pretty interesting look at the inner workings of the remodel of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and the long frustrating ordeal of implementing change in a public institution. Just as interesting are looks into managing the collection, antiquities restoration, and organizing displays. With four hours to tell the story you'd think it could be made clear what the final resolution regarding the contentious bike path was. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
