Empire is a British film magazine. It is the biggest selling film magazine in Britain. Empire organises the annual Sony Ericsson Empire Awards which are voted for by readers of the magazine.

Empire is populist in both approach and coverage unlike less irreverent and more serious magazines such as Sight and Sound. It reviews both mainstream films, including Hollywood fare, and art films, but feature articles concentrate on the former. The magazine occasionally produces themed issues around subjects such as Star Wars and "sex in film".

As well as film news, previews and reviews, Empire has some unique regular features. Each issue features a Classic Scene, a transcript from a notable film scene.
