Upon first viewing I thought she was very good, but subsequently I find her performance to be derivative, calculating, and contrived. Nothing she does seems natural, only calculated for effect. Sure she's supposed to be a nut, but fo me it doesn't work. She uses speech patterns stolen from some TV actress I've seen, name unknown, from some mid-period Seinfeld shows and someone else, or the same actress, from another show. Took me a while to figure out where I'd seen that kind of acting before.
