2011 Critics Choice Awards Full List of Winners
Announcing the Winners of the Critics' Choice Awards!
And they're off! The award season race is officially underway with the announcement of last night's Critics' Choice Award winners. The list isn't all that surprising, and many critics' favourites, including Colin Firth and Natalie Portman, walked away with a trophy as expected. Inception actually won the most awards overall by sweeping the technical categories, but it looks like the film to beat come Oscar time is The Social Network. Not only was director David Fincher recognised for his work on the movie, but it also picked up the biggest award of the evening for best picture. Do you agree with its win? Matt Damon also took the stage for the Joel Siegel Award, while Quentin Tarantino was honoured with the first ever Music+Film Award.
Overall, it was a fairly mundane evening, so here's hoping Sunday's Golden Globes are a little more exciting to watch. For now, take a look at the full rundown of Critics' Choice winners, and share your thoughts in the comments, when you read more.
