Tonight me and the hundreds of critics in the Broadcast Film Critics Association put our heads together, got all dolled up, strolled into a hangar in Santa Monica, CA and awards the 2018 Critics Choice Awards. The big winner of the night was Guillermo Del Toro's The Shape of Water, which earned him Best Director, Best Picture, Best Production Design, and Screenplay.
Clearly gaining in momentum is Martin McDonagh's divisive Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, which saw Frances McDormand win for Best Actress, Sam Rockwell for Best Supporting Actor, and Best Ensemble.
In some of the "fun" categories, Wonder Woman won for Best Action Movie, Best Comedy went to The Big Sick, and the Best in Sci-Fi/Horror was awarded to Jordan Peele's Get Out.
