This is a pretty brutal review from a respected critic. Do you think this will have an impact? I know the show was never a critics fave, but this is a strong indictment of the production itself.

Posted: 11/8/12 at 4:40pmDo you really think this one review will stop the show from coming to Broadway...?

Constantine did a radio interview this morning and his voice was very scratchy and they talked about his allergies being bad.
Mr. Buzz's review is out of sync with most other reviews and audience comments.

Posted: 11/8/12 at 10:20pmThat review matched the review from Buffalo and accurately captured my thoughts. The show needs a lot of work before NY.

Posted: 11/8/12 at 10:48pmIt just seems that after all the money lost on Wonderland and Bonnie & Clyde its so obvious this will get poor reviews and follow their fate. Why bother going through that?

Posted: 11/8/12 at 11:29pmThe show seriously needs a lot of work. It's not a "bad" production, but it really isn't the best. It's still good though, just needs improvement.
