  • The museum was below expectations. It was a whole mess. A lot of noise and chaos. The personnel, except for a few people was rather unfriendly. They don't smile at all. The elevator of the museum...

  • The Cinema Museum in Turin is a must-see for any film buff. It's packed with memorabilia and information about the history of cinema. The museum is also beautifully designed and laid out, making it a pleasure to explore. The center of the museum is pretty cool, with a huge open space with staircases on the walls. The panoramic elevator is a must. Its pretty cheap and you get to see great view of Turin.
  • Love the cinema museum, a real highlight for any visitor, this was my second visit, I came specifically for the Dario Argento exhibit and it did not disappoint, we spent two hours touring, reading the film history, seeing some of the actual props and generally having a nice time, if nice is the right word to use when touring a horror exhibition. There is lots of things to see and do here, this includes riding the wonderful lift. Make sure you stay in the main hall for at least one whole hour so you can see it flooded with light as the blinds open up. Amazing!
