Highest paid actresses like Angelina Jolie, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Aniston and many more might have delivered many superhit movies but a review of their movies by a leading film review aggregator site can send shock waves to Hollywood.

FOX411's Pop Tarts column has done a survey of the top five highest paid actresses' movies reviews over the last decade, 2001-2011, and the results will take everyone by surprise.

The site, Rotten Tomatoes -- which keeps track of all film reviews and tabulates a final percentage as either 'fresh' (above 60 percent) or 'rotten' (below 60 percent) -- showed that recently, Jolie is on a roll.

After calculating the profit earned over the decade from their movies, the site found that world's highest paid movie actress Jolie's average RT score over the past decade was 47 percent.
