Imagine a Jenny-from-the-block-goes-to-the-big-city comedy of corporate ambition, naïveté, and success — a movie in the tradition of “Working Girl” and “Baby Boom,” with Jennifer Lopez as Maya, the manager of a Queens superstore, who gets plucked from the outer boroughs like Cinderella to be an executive consultant for a high-end women’s cosmetics company. The trick that makes this possible is a fake resumé (cooked up by her hacker godson), which palms off Maya as a golden product of Harvard, Wharton, the Peace Corps, and Estée Lauder; this means she has to pretend to be all those things. She also, of course, has an office rival, a dark-flashing-eyed climber named Zoe (Vanessa Hudgens). Which of these two can devise the most profitable organic skin-care product?

Now imagine a sudsy Jenny-from-the-block weeper in which Lopez’s Maya lives with the perfect dude, a baseball coach named Trey (Milo Ventimiglia), who’s eager to marry her and start a family. All seems right in their world, except that Maya, who has just turned 40, doesn’t want kids. And the reason she doesn’t want kids is that she got pregnant when she was 16 and gave up her daughter for adoption. But now fate has smiled (and please read no further if you don’t want a key development of “Second Act” spoiled). Maya is reunited with her daughter, and gets to know her. You could almost call the movie a mother-daughter romance, complete with honeymoon, love montage, fight, break-up, and reunion.
