If you - like me- love cinema, and have not do much time this is a nice place to go and dive yourself in a good number of intetesting sets from many famous film. Manly you'll find a collection of thrones rooms, and of course it is funny to take a photo of your loved one pretending to be the king. There are a couple of studios, famous fir shooting "lawrence of arabia" an gladiator. Needless to say ambientations were traslated here from the original place. But what i loved most was the collection of sedan chairs and above all the display of old cinema apparatus and scene dress at the end. Looking at each old cinema part, you really got the idea how once taking shots with celluloid tapes, cutting them and then reassembling was a true work of art.

Not worth your time, let alone money.. This is less museum and more old dilapidated movie sets that you can explore. Unless you’re hugely interested in the exact movies filmed here, don’t waste your money. There’s junk all over the place, from out right trash to beds still on set. The sets are in disrepair, as they were never made to last in the first place. Then once you get to the museum-y bit.. Yikes! There is a room filled with old discarded film equipment, most in poor to terrible condition. It is all quite poorly labelled and explained. Most things are broken from people messing about with them. Old torn film hanging out from here and there. There’s even an old camera battery pack, complete with leaking cells and all to see. Exciting stuff. Wish I had known what a let down the place was beforehand and I would have saved 30 dirhams. The best part of the museum were the nice bathrooms.

It was an interesting experience and it felt like you are part of a movie but honestly the place needs some renovation. The museum itself has a lot of unique exhibits and can provide you with a very specific experience while traveling through it, but as everything seems abandoned, you feel like you just jumped a fence into an old building and you’re exploring it. Definitely worth the visit for the low price but don’t expect a well set and prepared path to follow.

A really fun way to not only see props from movies, but to learn a little about the life of the locals— since the movie industry employs many of the berbere people to be extras and to build the props and buildings. I recommend hiring a guide so that you can actually know what you’re looking at. The guide costs are really reasonable, and worth the extra few dollars. Find them outside the entrance. (If you’re lucky enough to hire Abdoul, you’ll have a great time.)

Interesting museum to walk around in, we spent less then an hour here. It would be nice if more of the stuff was labelled to know which movies they are attached to or which sets you are looking at. There are some really cool dungeon rooms and throne rooms to see and explore. Lots of amazing movies were made in the area but we didn't see many props or sets for the main movies here, atleast not listed. Still a nice place to visit!

One of the most bizarre museums I have ever been to. Rooms upon rooms of cinema sets and props with little-to-no signage. As other reviewers have said, it wouldn't take much to make this museum great, a few more signs with indications of which set was used for what movies. That being said, it was relatively cheap 30 dirham/person) and pleasant to wander around. Just wish I knew what I was wandering through.
