The theatrical release and extraordinary reception for Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s *You Can See Everything*—a record-setting 99 on Metacritic with a $15 million opening weekend—has injected major momentum into the Best Documentary Feature nominations race, positioning the A24 title as a potential historic cross-category contender. *Naza* currently leads Gold Derby and similar predictor consensus, while *Once Upon a Time in Harlem*, *American Doctor*, *Musk*, and *14th* round out the frontrunners based on festival circuit results and early Critics Choice Documentary Awards recognition. Distributor campaigns, guild and critics’ branch voting patterns, and the five-slot nomination structure favor films with strong critical consensus and timely subject matter. The Critics Choice Documentary Awards on November 8 and the Academy’s shortlist process will provide key signals ahead of nominations on January 21, 2027.
