Hliník might have moved to Humpolec, but the rest of the heroes of this back-to-school comedy keep fighting the traps of evening tech school. Thanks to the excellent screenplay by Smoljak and Svěrák director Lipský was able to shoot a cult evergreen that resonates with each new generation of audiences. (Summer Film School)

An uncompromising full score. It couldn’t get any better.

The gravediggers know what’s fun, but they've overdone it. When the film is put on ice for a while and comes back in about ten years, then maybe. I'll even forget about any of my distaste for school movies in general.

When I say that it is the funniest and best cast Czech comedy, there is really nothing more to add. The script by the masters Svěrák and Smoljak is brilliant and gives a lot of space to the great actors, led by Jiří Sovák and Josef Kemer, who were a lot of fun to watch. The five stars are absolutely deserved and without question. Where else would you find a film with so many memorable and legendary lines that never lose any of their originality and make you laugh every time you see them?

These Svěrák/Smoljak haha-heehee scripts where the quantity of jokes is the only quality get on my nerves quite a bit, but then again, if they had films like Marecek, Pass Me the Pen! or Joachim, Put It in the Machine, throw it in the hopper to serve as a dumping ground for weaker jokes that didn't fit into the Cimrman plays, then thank god for them. Still, I have to admit that the enthusiasm with which some of the actors throw themselves into their lines here occasionally makes you want to rewind some scenes and rewatch them. Kovarik's knocking lower lip during the traumatic "But Mlha..." scene, or the monologue consisting of one sentence and eighty-three words delivered by Weigel (which apparently made him a role model for Lukáš Grygar) would be some examples.

Just a great Svěrák/Smoljak-style film, which I've seen in its entirety only now. Some of the catchphrases are unbelievable, and I've realized how many of them I knew without remembering they were from this film. A wonderful example of Czech playfulness, humor, and lightness. It’s something you just don't see in today's Czech comedies.
