This is a comedy film that was released in 2018, produced by Huayi Brothers STX Entertainment and directed by Peter Segal is a great American producer, screenwriter and actor who has highlighted his great films in the comedy genre.

It starred the beautiful Jennifer López with her charisma, they give life to the role of an American who has great friends, the desire to get ahead and have experiences that she has earned in life, her dream is to work as a sales director.

In one of her interviews, our protagonist commented that she identifies with the working class, just as she did in her other film "Maid in Manhattan" (2002) that she worked as a maid in a hotel who aspired to be an administrator, that because she did not title and impersonating someone who was not denied the possibility. But both films this woman does not show that life can be changed 360 if you have intelligence, knowledge and persevere for your dreams.The difference between these two films is that one focuses on the romanticism of a humble girl who falls in love with an Aspiring Senator, while Maya puts her work first before the love of her life shows her daughter that She is a great brilliant professional who does not need a degree to succeed and achieve her dreams.

It is a comical film, which makes it appear in the lives of many women today that they are marginalized at work just because they are a woman, or because they do not have university degrees, without taking into account the potential that they can have by having great intelligence, cunning and experience in a certain area.
