“Rise Above” from the Spider Man musical, “Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark” proved to be a total flop. I thought that was the most boring and pointless performance of the night. Yawn. Not even the flying Spider Man ending upside down while trying to get a kiss from Jennifer Lopez kept us entertained.
