She's Australia's hottest export who made a name for herself in Hollywood blockbuster Suicide Squad.

And on Sunday, Margot Robbie was announced the winner of the Critics' Choice Award for Best Actress in an Action Movie for her role in the comic inspired film.

Margot was not present to accept the award, which she won in favour of big name celebrities including Scarlett Johansson, Tilda Swinton and Gal Gadot.

Award winner: Margot Robbie has won the Critics' Choice Award for Best Actress in an Action Movie for her role in Suicide Squad - despite the film being slammed by critics earlier this year

The award is a strong endorsement for Margot, who is set to star in her own standalone Harley Quinn movie as part of the ongoing DC Comics Universe.

Margot's acclaimed performance was a highlight of an otherwise critically savaged film and proved a boost for that film's publicity.

The former Neighbours star played the role of baseball bat wielding anti-hero Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad which was branded 'disastrous' and 'stupid' by critics.

The comic book film - featuring Will Smith, Jared Leto, Margot Robbie and Cara Delevingne - was criticised for 'appalling sexism and hideously timed gun worship'.

The widely panned film was dubbed 'mundane' and 'predictable,' while one reviewer warned that it 'isn't even the good kind of bad'.

Vanity Fair's Richard Lawson wrote: 'Suicide Squad is bad. Not fun bad. Not redeemable bad.

Not happy: Not everyone enjoyed Margot's performance with one critic saying she was the 'embodiment of all the conflicting things, this frankly disastrous movie... is attempting to do'

'Not the kind of bad that is the unfortunate result of artists honorably striving for something ambitious and falling short.'

Meanwhile, despite her much-admired performance at the Critics' Choice Award, BuzzFeed's Alison Willmore had a different take on Margot's role in the film.

Alison focused on the films use of women, suggesting: 'The women can't control themselves and they're always dragging down the men around them.'

Has Margot Robbie moved to LA? The Australian actress put on a loved up display with boyfriend Tom Ackerley as they arrived in Los Angeles after bidding farewell to the UK

She found the most fault lay with the portrayal of Harley Quinn (Margot), calling her 'an embodiment of all the conflicting things, this frankly disastrous new movie... is attempting to do'.

'Harley Quinn is meant to be Suicide Squad's dark heart. Instead, she's been made into its damaged dolly jerk-off material.'

Meanwhile, Margot made headlines when rumours emerged the blonde beauty had packed her things in her home in the UK to move to Los Angeles with her partner.

'Love this bunch more than I can say': The 26-year-old actress expressed her love for her pals in the heartfelt post to Instagram as she hinted at permanently leaving her UK home

Margot recently posted a picture to Instagram with a large group of friends and captioned the image: 'End of an era, love this bunch more than I can say.'

She has been living in London with her boyfriend, Tom Ackerley and flatmates since 2014 in a small Clapham apartment.

Margot and Tom have been dating since the pair met in June 2013 on the set of the World War II drama Suite Française in France.
