Kiwi director Jane Campion has taken home the award for Best Director for her film The Power of the Dog at the Critics Choice Awards today.

Fittingly presented the award by fellow Kiwi filmmaker, Taika Waititi, Campion's Western-style psychological drama also won Best Picture as well as awards for its cinematography and Campion's screenplay adaptation.

Earlier today, the director took out the coveted BAFTA Awards for Best Film and Best Director.

Another Kiwi to take home an award was Melanie Lynsky. She won Best Actress in a Drama Series for her role in Yellowjackets, a survival epic about a high school female soccer team who survive a plane crash. Lynsky thanked her nanny in her acceptance speech.

The 27th annual Critics Choice Awards ceremony kicked off in Los Angeles on Sunday night local time (12 noon NZT).

This awards show honours both film and television, meaning the list of nominees was a lengthy one.

The awards show is being hosted by Empire actor and Broadway star Taye Diggs and Nicole Byer, a judge on the Netflix series Nailed It.

Carey Mulligan, Lin-Manuel Miranda and even Serena Williams are among those who will be presenting the awards to the winners.

Australian actor Murray Bartlett has been awarded the Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series for his turn in The White Lotus. His co-star Jennifer Coolidge has been named Best Supporting Actress in the same category.

Belfast's Jude Hill won hearts on the red carpet with his impeccable suit and adorable smile - and the 11-year-old actor has taken out the award for Best Young Actor/Actress.

Hill thanked his mum, dad and the rest of the Belfast cast, telling the film's director Kenneth Branagh, "I love you so much".

Jessica Chastain has been awarded Best Actress for her role in The Eyes of Tammy Faye, beating the likes of Lady Gaga and Nicole Kidman. And Will Smith has taken out Best Actor for his role as Serena and Venus Williams' tennis coach dad Richard Williams in King Richard, after accepting a BAFTA for the role earlier today.

"Thank you for entrusting me with your story," he told the athletes in his acceptance speech.

More to come.
