Released on May 21, 1980, the highly anticipated sequel became the highest-grossing film that year, earning approximately $401.5 million worldwide. Unlike its predecessor, Empire met with slightly mixed reviews from critics, but many fans hail it as the series best episode with its much darker and maturer themes than those of the lighthearted adventure Star Wars. Critics and fans also praised the expressive features and characterisation of puppeteered character Yoda, a diminutive alien who serves as Luke’s teacher. The film was nominated for various awards and won two Academy Awards, two Grammy Awards, and a BAFTA, among others. Subsequent releases have raised the film’s worldwide gross to $538–549 million and, adjusted for inflation, it is the 13th-highest-grossing film in the United States and Canada.

The film also possibly contains cinema's greatest reveal of all time with the infamous line "...I..am your father...'"

May the Force be with you :)
