This week there are two alien invasion movies. One deals with it more traditionally while the other is an animated movie where aliens want to take moms. The other major movie is a retelling of Red Riding Hood but with some kind of Twilight twist with werewolves.
Nationwide Releases

Mars Needs Moms
Red Riding Hood
Battle: Los Angeles
Directed: Jonathan Liebesman
Starring: Aaron Eckhart, Michelle Rodriguez, Ramon Rodriguez, Bridget Moynahan, Ne-Yo, Michael Peña

Synopsis: Aliens invade and people run around!
