Every article in the magazine is written by genuine film lovers. Our impassioned movie journalists care about creating the seminal cinematic journal that we release every month. When we are in the office together, we love nothing more than to debate the merits of each Marvel character or the detailed Star Wars trivia that only a true fan would know.

But we don’t just spend our lives obsessing over classics. Empire is at the forefront of the film industry. Whether it is reviewing the next big-screen masterpiece or conducting a world-first exclusive interview with Hollywood stars and directors, our journalists will bring you closer to the action.

Since our first issue in July 1989, we have transported film fans across the world onto the sets and into the director’s chair of the world’s greatest films. We look forward to welcoming you.

Ratings and reviews

This app has great potential but needs work. The main issues I'm having is when trying to read the archive issues of the magazine. When I try to read some issues the app just crashes and whenever I go back to that page it crashing again. The other problem is some of the articles you have to scroll through are really small on the screen and I can't read them. If these issues were fixed I'd love this app and I think it's amazing that as a subscriber you get lots of back issues.

Since the latest update and having reset my password, as a long-term subscriber I am still being prompted to sign up on either a monthly or annual subscription to view any kind of content. I thought digital access was supposed to be more accessible and convenient. This is incredibly frustrating as your UI seems well laid out in other respects. A great magazine, with great content. If only I was able to access said content :(

I was crestfallen when Empire Australasia went under last year and was hesitant to get the digital subscription to Empire Mothership because I still prefer to read the magazine in paper form. I needn't have worried. Fantastic layout, intuitive scrolling navigation, and nifty little animated graphics make reading on the app a joy, and mean I never have to worry about missing an ish. Superb.
