...Bale Batman Begins, the Craig Casino showed a young man taking his first steps toward superhero status. He was stern and ferocious, similar to protagonists in the grittier, glummer, more violent action-adventure films of the past few years. The new 007 was the ultimate fighter, not the ultimate lover.

...enjoyable tune to the next and stays fresh with the injection of reggae flavor on “No Other Love” (featuring British diva Estelle of “American Boy” fame) and infectious bonus “Can’t Be My Lover.” Things slow down toward the second half with the excusable ballad “This Time”—a return to the piano-driven, earnest love song Legend has mastered, except this time backed by even sappier strings—and the sweeter, stronger tunes...
