I can thoroughly recommend the VMD package, which is freeware and
obtained from:

http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/

It reads many file types, including AMBER top and mdcrd/rst files
(it calls the rst files crd files though), also reads PDB files.
Animations are made very easily and beautifully. VMD is available
for many architectures.
