I saw Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark (Broadway) on 03/02/11. Overall, I'd say it was a 2-star rating. I'd summarize it by saying “Impressive talent lost in a sea of story-free comics and dark, unmemorable music.”

I had a unremarkable time and left the show feeling like I had lost an evening of my life and wishing the show had lived up to the talent. I'd describe the show as lost, overdone, and confusing. If this were a movie, I'd rate it PG.

I sat in the right orchestra area of the theater. The view was great and the seats were roomy.
