Slow, boring, but it grabbed me:

Home from college on summer break, 20-year-old Ivy (Zoe Kazan, granddaughter of controversial Turk Elia) noodles quietly around New York City, looking at something over here, calling and calling her absent boyfriend over there, and serenely absorbing the flirtations of her childhood best friend in all the moments between. But the discrepancy between title and tone is more threatening than ironic—Ivy, we learn early on, is epileptic, and stress or emotional strain can trigger her seizures. So The Exploding Girl studies Ivy as she tiptoes that line: staying calm, cooling off, rolling with the little blows and little joys that life delivers. As the stresses build, we watch and wait, wondering when she'll seize and what will set her off (it's inevitable—this is a movie, after all). The Exploding Girl is a sort of wry inverse of Crank. The suspense is tiny and electric, an inside-out thriller.
