In an interview with '' Total Film '' , the actress explained that her character was not dependent on the film 's protagonist . " She saves him more than he saves her . She 's incredibly helpful to Spider-Man ... He 's the muscle , she 's the brains . " Her performance was well received by critics ; an '' Empire '' reviewer praised her for standing out in the film : " Stone is the Heath Ledger of this series , doing something unexpected with an easily dismissed supporting character .
