Jennifer Lopez.. Films

I love J Lo .. and over the years have enjoyed many of her films ...

Second Act 2018 - is definitely a feel good woman's movie, it has everything anyone could ask for.. comedy, romance and an outstanding cast including Jennifer Lopez, Vanessa Hudgens, Leah Remini, and Milo Ventimiglia.  In the movie Jennifer Lopez plays a woman in her 40s who wants to move up in her career at a grocery store, however she is passed over for lack of credentials.. Than after a friend's son creates her a fake resume, credentials and a social media presence she is offered a new position ( a second chance ) to live the life that she has always dreamt of..

I have to be honest I not only found the movie extremely enjoyable but also very touching.. After all,  I think many people who have years of experience can identify with being passed over due to a lack of education credentials.. but for me the movie touched on so much more..  Leaving me crying at what she thought she had loss..
