One Battle After Another also won Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Editing. 

Ryan Coogler’s Sinners leads the winners list with 10 awards, including Best Actor for Michael B. Jordan, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, and Best Score. 

Comprised of nearly 300 voting members from around the world, the Online Film Critics Society was founded in 1997. Members include writers from outlets such as Slant, Paste Magazine, AARP, and Sight & Sound. 

The Online Film Critics Society also hands out Special Achievement and Lifetime Achievement Awards. OFCS members are invited to nominate recipients of both awards. This year’s Special Achievement Award was handed to Green Film for “developing and certifying sustainability criteria to be adopted to reduce the environmental impact of an audiovisual production to a minimum but without slowing down the cast and crew’s work” and Film Workers for Palestine for “drawing attention to the ethical compromises being made within the film industry and fighting for organizations to support Palestine and acknowledge the current genocide.” 

Colleen Atwood, Jack Nicholson, Steven Spielberg, Vittorio Storaro, and Walter Murch were announced as the Lifetime Achievement Award honorees.
