The Broadcast Film Critics Association and the Broadcast Television Journalists Association presented the 24th Annual Critics’ Choice Awards winners in Santa Monica, CA on January 13.
Sff movies made a weak showing – Black Panther won only two of the 11 awards it was up for, Best Visual Effects and Best Costume Design. In two genre-dominated specialty categories, Best Sci-Fi/Horror Movie went to the post-apocalyptic horror film A Quiet Place, and Best Animated Feature was won by Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

Previously announced, creator/showrunner Chuck Lorre received the Critics’ Choice Creative Achievement Award, and actress Claire Foy accepted the third-ever #SeeHer Award.
I never expect SF to make much of a showing except in production areas. Seeing “Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse” win both the Golden Globe and Critic’s Choice for best animated feature was a treat. I’m glad “Black Panther” did win some awards but do wish some acting ones had gone to it.
