                                                                                                                   By Natalie Morin on October 31, 2016
                                                                                                             Meryl Streep is an actress who seems to do no wrong. With a whopping 19 Academy Award nominations and three wins, critically-acclaimed movie credits and talented daughters (two actresses and a model), Streep's influence on the movie industry is likely to outlive her.
With this in mind, Pretty Famous, an entertainment data site by Graphiq, ranked every Meryl Streep movie from worst to first. To do so, Pretty Famous compiled a list of  Streep's movie credits (whether her role was big or small) and ranked each based on its Smart Rating (documentaries and TV movies weren't included). A Smart Rating is a score out of 100 that takes into account a movie's Rotten Tomatoes' Tomatometer and Audience Score, IMDb rating, Metacritic Metascore, Gracenote rating and its inflation-adjusted U.S. box office gross.

Of course, with an almost 40-year career and over 50 feature films, there are bound to be some that shine over others. Streep's penchant for movie musicals, for example, including "Mamma Mia!" and "Into the Woods," were nowhere near the Oscar-caliber work Streep is known for. However, the actress's versatility certainly is one of her main strengths.
