Critics' Choice Movie Awards 2025

Live Stream, TV, Nominees, Predictions, Lineup, Date

The 30th Critics' Choice Awards is another of the early season awards ceremonies held in California, bringing the stars out for an evening of glamour and spectacle.

These awards are hosted by the Broadcast Film Critics Association and have been held every year since 1985. The BFCA represents over 200 top industry critics so I guess you would have to lend a decent amount of weight to their opinions, although personally I think if I was an actor I would get more satisfaction from winning a People's Choice award - I think there's a certain impression you get of movie critics that perhaps they are a little "up themselves" and give more credibility to films based on perceived artiness rather than general public acclaim.

Having said that, it has been noted that the Critics Choice Movie Awards (sometimes abbreviated to CCMA) do actually have a higher correlation in picking winners with the most prestigious awards of all, The Oscars. I guess this would make sense if you think that it's the same sort of groups of people represented.

There is an argument I suppose that the opinion of the people should be the main factor, and this is effectively monitored by box office success, but the counter-argument would then be that this discriminates against the smaller, independent film makers who don't have the budget and big name stars to reach the masses in the same way.

Either way, this is sure to be a great night out - the guest list may not be quite as glittering as some of the larger awards, but names such as Margot Robbie, Emma Stone, Cillian Murphy, Jeremy Allen White, Mark Ruffalo, Lily Gladstone, Emily Blunt, Dan Levy, Tyler James Williams, Bradley Cooper, America Ferrera, Mandy Moore, Tom Hiddleston, Jennifer Anniston, Pedro Pascal, Ali Wong, Sandra Oh, Dua Lipa, Angela Bassett, Tom Holland were all at the 2024 event so there will certainly be no shortage or red carpet paparazzi appeal!

TV & Live Streaming

Live TV broadcast of the Critics Choice Movie Awards has been provided by different broadcasters in previous years and I should advise there hasn't always been a live stream available as part of the coverage, although with most channels having online viewing options these days it shouldn't be a problem.

You can watch live on The CW network , TBS or Hulu TV

We will of course bring you the relevant links for TV coverage and streaming once we have them.
