               Re:    Registration Statement on Form S-1
                      -----------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

               We have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No.
333-42177) originally filed by Micromuse Inc. (the "Company") with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on December 12, 1997, as
thereafter amended or supplemented (the "Registration Statement"), in connection
with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of up to
3,680,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Shares"). The Shares, which
include an over-allotment option granted by certain stockholders of the Company
to the Underwriters to purchase up to 480,000 additional shares of the Company's
Common Stock, are to be sold to the Underwriters by the Company and certain
stockholders of the Company as described in the Registration Statement for
resale to the public. As your counsel in connection with this transaction, we
have examined the proceedings taken and are familiar with the proceedings
proposed to be taken by you in connection with the sale and issuance of the
Shares.

               It is our opinion that, upon completion of the proceedings being
taken or contemplated by us, as your counsel, to be taken prior to the issuance
of the Shares and upon completion of the proceedings being taken in order to
permit such transactions to be carried out in accordance with the securities
laws of the various states where required, the Shares, when issued and sold in
the manner described in the Registration Statement and in accordance with the
resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company, will be legally
and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Shares being sold by the
stockholders of the Company have been validly issued, are non-assessable and, to
our knowledge, are fully paid. Our opinion with respect to the Shares being sold
by the stockholders of the Company being fully paid is based solely upon your
written representations to us with respect to the consideration received for
such Shares.

               We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to said
Registration Statement, and further consent to the use of our name wherever
appearing in said Registration Statement, including the prospectus constituting
a part thereof, and in any amendment or supplement thereto.

                  Very truly yours,

                     /s/ Gunderson Dettmer Stough Villeneuve Franklin &
                     Hachigian, LLP
