While Everything Everywhere All at Once may have been the most nominated, it was second-most-nominated The Banshees of Inisherin that won out in the end.

Precursor: 28th Critics Choice Nominations (2022)
Heavy on populism, the Critics Choice Association has put together a rather vanilla list of selections, overextending on Best Picture to eleven and selecting some questionable items. They shut out She Said, supported the category fraud of Michelle Williams in The Fabelmans and played a lot of races fairly safely. Everything Everywhere All at Once…
