Theater critics have handed out harsh reviews for Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, the Broadway-bound show still in previews, set to open March 15. According to PopEater.com, there have been comments from reviewers such as “a shrill, insipid mess” (The Washington Post), “underbaked, terrifying, confusing” (New York Magazine), and “so grievously broken in every respect that it is beyond repair” (The New York Times).
Producers of the show have remarked that the comments published were not fair, since reviews are traditionally not done until a performance is finalized. Critics say that the show’s four delayed opening dates and the lengthy preview period, being longer than some shows actually run, was the cause for their early commentary.
