09/13/2015 Not really much new here, but Braden King's slowly paced and loose approach carries a tone that grows on you. Scenery lovers will enjoy the look of the movie. Ben Foster and Lubna Azabal are the film's best assets. It just never felt alive enough to cross over into something really interesting.

The lead actors were wonderful together. See more 08/16/2013 This is a lovely film. Slow and deliberate, Here takes its time unraveling a tender romance between an American mapmaker and an Armenian woman in the countryside. It's part road movie and part culture clash. The cinematography is spectacular. Ben Foster, always reliable, delivers one of his landmark performances. The film could have done without the abstract interstitials and voice-over poetry, which come off as freshmen film school.

That's where Gadarine(Lubna Azabal) comes in. She is just back from Paris where she studied photography and whose return her brother Krikor(Narek Nersisyan) is more than ambivalent about. By coincidence or this being a very small country, Gadarine and Will meet again at a reception. After which, she agrees to accompany him on his work around the country, even after being warned away from the eastern border. "Here" is a fine example of sparse and meditative filmmaking, whose deliberate pace often allows the scenery to do the talking for it. What we find is a country that while lacking amenities like basic scheduled transportation has a valuable commodity in a friendly population.(No wonder Gadarine has mixed feelings on her return.) In this day and age, it is kind of amazing that somebody could literally go off the map and find themselves in a situation where nobody speaks English. And yes, the interludes are kind of pretentious but I could listen to Peter Coyote read the phone book all day, so no complaints here.
