The critics have spoken.
Boyhood took best picture, Birdman's Michael Keaton won Best Actor and Julianne Moore took home Best Actress at the Critics Choice Awards for her work as a woman suffering from Alzheimer's in Still Alice.
"All these little imperfections we carry around with us, that's the essence of life itself," said Boyhood director Richard Linklater, who also took home directing honors. "Life doesn't give you perfect, but it does give us all the opportunity to care about one another."
Birdman came out with seven wins, while Boyhood nabbed for awards and The Grand Budapest Hotel took three.
Gone Girl writer Gillian Flynn and the writers of Birdman were among the early winners at The Broadcast Film Critics Association's 20th annual Critics' Choice Awards. Boyhood's Ellar Coltrane took the Best Young Actor/Actress honor, remarking that a year ago he didn't think anyone would care about the movie, adding that he'd had to get used to saying "thank you" for the accolades. The cast of Birdman won acting ensemble honors.
Kevin Costner, Ron Howard and Jessica Chastain received special honors at the awards ceremony, which was held at the Hollywood Palladium and broadcast live by A&E. Michael Strahan, co-host of Live with Kelly and Michael, hosted the ceremony.
