A film rendezőjét főiskolás korábban(a nálunk is nagy sikerrel vetített) Olajfalók című vizsgafilmjéért úgynevezett diák Oscar-díjjal tüntették ki. Az Általános iskola volt az első játékfilmje, amelyet egyébként édesapjával (Zdenek Svěrákkal) közösen forgatott. A film óriási érdeklődést keltett otthon és külföldön is. Ezt követően Oscarra jelölték, de nem kapta meg. További 5 évet kellett várnia az arany szobrocskára, végül Kolja című csodás filmjéért méltán elnyerte az Oscar-díjat a "Legjobb külföldi film" kategóriában. A most bemutatásra kerülő film közvetlenül a II. világháborút követően játszódik egy külvárosi fiúiskolában, ahol a gyerekek fantáziáját még a háborús hőstettek kötik le, s tanárukban is ilyen hőst keresnek. Az új tanárnak nincs könnyű dolga, mert a háborúban felnőtt gyerekekkel szinte lehetetlen szót érteni. (DunaTV)

For me personally, the best film of the Svěrák family duo... Not only because of the wonderful cast, but also because this film has a completely unrepeatable atmosphere, spirit and wit... Although other scripts by Zdeněk Svěrák are excellent, this one has the greatest hallmark of authenticity, naturalness and loving nostalgia for me. The characters are written completely plausibly, and they are also perfectly believably acted; this creates a unique panopticon, which Jan Svěrák brought to life with a range of funny and tragic stories, thus joining the best tradition of European film - as if through a spell, everyday things become exceptional, magical, captivating. The Elementary School has a bit of boyish mischief in it, a bit of childish naivety, and a bit of an adult view of the world. It is a film magically naïve and yet does not lack perspective and the third dimension. Probably the most beautiful portrait of childhood and adult "heroes" I have ever seen. The Elementary School ranks at the very top of my post-revolutionary rankings next to Hřebejk's Divided We Fall.

The Elementary School was an early peak for Jan Svěrák, who set the bar so high from the very beginning that he could only crawl under it despite all his efforts later on. Svěrák managed to assemble a great team and an ideal cast and get the best out of them. He worked excellently with nostalgia for a lost childhood and effective sentiment, which is not oversweetened or fake. His father wrote credible, attractive characters that the audience can easily identify with. The director also had a lucky hand in selecting the child actors and everything works like Swiss clockwork. There is a bit of childlike naivety and boyish mischief in it, and above all, an amazing retro atmosphere. I have no reason to be stingy and I give it an overall impression of 95%. Jan Tříska has indeed filmed a number of significant roles, but he will always be remembered in the hearts of viewers as the eccentric teacher Igor Hnízdo.

An excellent Czech film that superbly captures the era and the fact that being a personality and chasing girls is essentially timeless. Everyone has their weaknesses and strengths. Here it's beautifully evident, an, it's captivatingly presented from a child's perspective. The Svěráks formed an incredibly strong team.
