While not a conventional Mother’s Day film, ‘Aliens’ does see Ellen Ripley going all-out to protect a young girl she takes under her wing.
So, grab your bucket of homemade popcorn and crash onto the couch with your dear mother, because it’s time to have some quality time together.Despite the fact that they disagree with each other’s outlook on life, the mother-daughter relationship between Merida and Elinor is a strong one. It is a beautifully animated film, as befitting most of Disney’s latest works, and it emphasises that parents ought to love their children for who they are.
However, a magical fortune cookie ends up causing the two to switch bodies, resulting in various shenanigans as they literally step into each other’s shoes. After surviving her alien encounter in the first film, Ripley is forced to lead a marine squadron through an alien-infested moon base. His mother, the unnamed protagonist, believes strongly in his innocence and is relentless in her search for answers to free her son.
