    It sounds like you're confusing her performance with her dialogue.
    The bit about deciding the fate of worlds has nothing to do with her performance.
    Also, if she *alternates* between sentimentality and stiffness, you
    can't say her *whole* performance is wooden. (Personally, I didn't
    think she was wooden at all.)
