"Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark producer Michael Cohl has hit out at critics of the Broadway musical. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Cohl claimed that reviewers who slated the $65 million (\u00C2\u00A341.6 million) production are out of touch. &amp;quot;Any of the people who review the show and say it has no redeeming value are just not legitimate reviewers, period,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s hard to have people that don&amp;#039;t get pop culture reviewing a pop culture event, isn&amp;#039;t it?&amp;quot; The Julie Taymor-helmed show has been hit by a barrage of negative reviews ahead of its official opening. Both The New York Times and The Washington Post labelled it as one of the worst musicals in Broadway history. However, Cohl went on to say that he is unfazed by the bad press. &amp;quot;I woke up this morning more determined and more positive than ever. I said, &amp;#039;Here we go&amp;#039;,&amp;quot; he added. Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark opens to the public on March 15. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
