    "BODIES" IS A MUST SEE: You have to absolutely see the "Bodies" exhibit if it comes to your area. Amazing!

    Don't waste your money.: This exhibit is terrible, as a matter of fact most of the museum is terrible. I am unfortunate enough to have a family membership which I will not renew. The Bodies exhibit is really neat, and the Kids In Charge area is fun for kids and adults, but the rest is not worth taking the time to see. Most of the exhibits don't work any time I go, and the ones that do are not worth seeing.

    Pales in comparison to other science museums: MOSI doesn't pretend to be at the level of The Franklin Institute or the Smithsonian or the Science Museum in Boston, but it seems that it could do much better nevertheless.

    What it needs to figure out is whether it wants to be a Children's Museum or a Science Museum. As things stand, it's sort of a childish museum with some science-related stuff.
