Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

This t.v. movie comes of better than was intended I feel, and I'm talking the quality of the film. Like Chained Heat, if done unintentionally with style and finesse. What we have here quite a good solid drama, about an abused woman (hot Oxenberg) an actress who's name almost slips under the radar, if not for existing much more in the 80's. Batting for her little boy who shot the arsehole of a hubby, she takes the rap, and with a failed hearing, due to corrupt parties, ends up serving her time, which is no picnic, thanks to some of the sick and bent guard folk, and others, in cahoots with that bent judge, who run an operation, involving strip dancing at a club called Mr D'S, owned by and aged and hobbling Bo Hopkins, who's never been funnier. Appointed to Oxenberg's case, is not the brightest of lawyers (Jeff Fahey) an underrated actor, and he does us solid here, where he befriends the son, and starts to investigate the stink. One unintentionally funny scene has him in stupefaction, gawping at Oxenberg, getting her gear off at Mr D's. On the inside though, we're not forgotten about the brutality at the hands of one corrupt, sick, and repugnant, warden who beats the girls if not abiding by his sexual favors, and he plays violent. All in all, Time Served, rises about the average mire of these sorts of prison type films, with a fresh spin off, angle of story, that manages to be bloody entertaining. Solid t.v. movie drama with some hot bods to boot. You might just enjoy this one, and again, Mr 'Dynasty' Hopkins is hilarious, of course not the only star here, who was in that famous 80's soap.

*SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* I bought this video. Oxenberg takes the rap for the murder of her abusive husband. She ends up in a women's prison. Thankfully, this prison has a progressive work release program. If she would just agree to dance topless at a local bar, she may shave some time off. After a little abuse, she decides stripping is not such a bad idea. Eventually she takes the bus over to the nudie bar. The rest of the flick has a lot of strip club scenes as Oxenberg fights for her freedom.Yes, it's two movies in one. "Time Served" can't decide if it wants to be a women's prison flick or a stripper movie. In the end, the stripper movie prevails. Since all they really wanted was to show some naked breasts, keeping the action in the strip club made the most sense. While "Time Served" sounds like an exploitation fan's dream come true, the filmmaker's hearts really weren't into the abusive, violent side of the women's prison genre. But, as we all know, any movie with strip club scenes must be good on some level. Overall, it was a decent B-flick. It's worth a look.

Wow, they combined a women-in-prison movie with a strip-club movie. Unfortunately, neither one is very good. The prison is full of average-looking to pretty white women. Not nearly enough nudity in the prison part of the film, and breasts in topless bar scenes really aren't that erotic. Catherine Oxenberg wasn't scintillating in the starring role, although she is quite pretty. Lourdes Colon was pretty decent here, and deserves a try in a better movie. It WAS refreshing to see women's breasts that could actually appear in nature. Maybe the silicone craze has run its course. (I hope)

Well, lets see. Woman goes to prison for a crime she didn't commit. Just so happens she's a really hot woman. So obviously she's a perfect candidate for the prison's "work release program", a strip/prostitution bar! Sound believeable so far? And what do you know, the very judge that put her away happens to frequent this bar and you better believe that he "wants a piece" of our heroine. The whole plot is a sort of mask for the stripping parts. Those were actually pretty believable. You won't se any buxom women like in that Demi Moore movie. Some of them are, shall I say, not so "asthetically pleasing." Well, in summary it's not the best movie, but for a budget of what seemed to be about $1,000, it wasn't that bad.
