Which Jennifer Lawrence movies rank highest?

Rankings of her films depend on the method used. The list below follows the Rotten Tomatoes editorial ranking, dated , which uses Tomatometer scores.

  1. Winter’s Bone (2010), 94%
  2. American Hustle (2013), 92%
  3. Silver Linings Playbook (2012), 92%
  4. X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014), 90%
  5. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (2013), 90%
Why the order changes

An IMDb user-rating list gives different positions. An IMDb list dated 2 June 2024 places The Hunger Games: Catching Fire first, ahead of The Hunger Games. A Yahoo ranking dated 14 November 2025 uses Rotten Tomatoes-based positions but orders several films differently again.

Which film is meant by ‘mother’?

The search term most likely refers to mother! (2017), in which she plays a character credited simply as Mother. The exclamation mark is part of the title.

Rotten Tomatoes gives the film 68%, and an IMDb list dated 18 August 2024 gives it a user rating of 6.6. The film is generally described as a psychological thriller, and it sits outside the top five of the editorial ranking.

Which genres run through her films?

Her filmography covers drama, comedy-leaning titles, franchise action, science fiction and satire. Several films mix these tones, so the groupings overlap.

Silver Linings Playbook is described as a romantic comedy-drama, and American Hustle as a crime comedy-drama. Both sit among the highest-scoring titles on the Rotten Tomatoes list above.

No Hard Feelings, in which she plays Maddie Barker, appears in discussions of her comedy-leaning work. Its Tomatometer score is 71%.

Reference point

Silver Linings Playbook is the title linked to her Academy Award for Best Actress, which makes it a useful reference point for her awards-season work.

Which of her films are set in space?

Passengers, released in 2016, is set in space. She plays Aurora Lane in the film, which has a Rotten Tomatoes score of 30%.

Passengers is the only title in her filmography that the listings describe as set in space.

Which films did she produce, and where can they be watched?

Several titles credit her as a producer rather than only as an actor. These include Die My Love (2025), No Hard Feelings (2023) and Causeway (2022).

Two documentaries also carry her name in production roles. She is listed as producer on Bread and Roses (2023) and as executive producer on Zurawski v Texas (2024).

What Happens at Night, in which she plays The Woman, is listed as in post-production with no confirmed release date. It also carries a producer credit.

Streaming availability

Don’t Look Up is listed as a Netflix title in one source. Streaming availability changes by region and over time, and current UK availability could not be confirmed for it or for the other titles in this guide.

Which details are confirmed and which remain uncertain?

Established Unclear

Silver Linings Playbook brought her the Best Actress Academy Award. Joy is listed with both Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress nominations in one source, but with Best Actress alone in another.
Die My Love was released in 2025, and she is credited as its producer. Don’t Look Up has an IMDb user rating of 7.1 in one list and 7.2 in another.
Passengers, released in 2016, is set in space. Clayface is listed without any role for her.

Why do her films span such different styles?

Her career moved from the independent drama Winter’s Bone to the studio franchise The Hunger Games. It then continued through awards-season dramas such as Silver Linings Playbook and American Hustle.

The range extends to science fiction in Passengers and satire in Don’t Look Up. Readers comparing careers built on varied genres can also look at Robert De Niro Movies – Best Films and Full Filmography.

A chronological list shows the order in which films were released. A top 10 list reflects an editorial selection of the strongest titles, so the two answer different questions.

How far can the rankings and dates be trusted?

The Rotten Tomatoes editorial ranking is the most consistent single list cited here, but it reflects editorial choices. The Rotten Tomatoes celebrity page gives different figures for some films, including Don’t Look Up at 56%.

IMDb ratings come from user votes, and the lists that carry them are compiled by users. Ratings for some films vary between lists, so the scores quoted here are tied to the list they come from.

Award details are recorded in the Academy’s database at oscars.org. UK release records are held by the British Film Institute.

What does the full picture of her films show?

Her filmography combines early independent drama, franchise blockbusters, awards-season work and producing credits. Release order, editorial rankings and user ratings each tell a different part of the story.
