If you don't enjoy museums this one is unlikely to magically convert you.
IMHO, the Edo Museum is a camel, i.e. operated by committee. It tries to do too much and lacks originality and consistency in it's displays. It's probably worth a visit, but I always think it fails to come anywhere close to its potential.

Another option is the Fukagawa Edo Museum. It's a re-creation of an Edo village and really well done. Depends on your taste, by always find it fascinating.
