Jennifer Lawrence had a lot to celebrate following the Critics’ Choice Movie Awards on Thursday.

The 22-year-old was named Best Actress in two separate categories for two different roles – winning Best Actress in an Action Movie for The Hunger Games and Best Actress in a Comedy for Silver Linings Playbook.

After the Hunger Games nod Jennifer joked that 'all the sweat was worth it', but then delivered a touching speech about working on Silver Linings Playbook, claiming that 'movies changed my life.'

Twice as nice: Jennifer Lawrence was named both Best Actress in an Action Movie and Best Actress in a Comedy at the Critics' Choice Movie Awards on Thursday

On top: Silver Linings Playbook took home the most awards of the evening with four gongs

She said to Bradley Cooper: 'The first time we did a scene together you took my breath away, and the first time I watched the movie you broke my heart and put it back together again.'

No doubt the entire cast and crew would have been raising a glass after the ceremony, which was held at the Barker Hanger in Santa Monica, as the movie came out on top with four awards.

Bradley Cooper took home Best Actor in a Comedy, calling Jennifer Lawrence 'something else' in his speech, and the film also won Best Acting Ensemble and Best Comedy.

Ben Affleck may have been snubbed by the Academy Awards but he was praised by film critics as he was awarded the Best Director trophy for Argo, and joked about the irony.

And the movie also won the most coveted award of the evening in the form of Best Picture.

The star then thanked her co-stars, and said: ‘I want to give special thanks to Hugh Jackman who is our leader,’ before praising ‘tireless captain’ Russell Crowe.

After being introduced by Rebel Wilson, funnyman Judd Apatow was presented with the Genius Award and had the audience in stitches.

Pointing the stars out in the audience, he said: ‘Spielberg, you did not win tonight. Tommy Lee Jones, you lost. Tom Hooper, stop sulking. Ang Lee, you have another year... Is Daniel Day-Lewis here? There he is. I beat you, too.’
