回复 :1993年，山田洋次導演的《學校》在日本本士引起極大迴響，不僅贏得好評如潮，更在各大頒獎禮中獨領風騷。延續篇《學校II》將舞台移師至北海道一間供智障學童入讀的高中，但仍舊以刻劃帥生關係及反思教育意義為核心主題。山田在片中寄托了他對學校及老師們的期望：教育並非只靈培育老師心目中的好學生，老師的工作也並非只是教學，更重要的是跟學生建立深厚的關係。全片溫情洋溢，值得細味。The Learning Circle, a film by Yamada Yoji and a follow-up to his 1993 hit A Class To Remember, is a moving story about the daily life of teachers and students at a high school for mentally-handicapped children. In this film, Yamada has depicted vividly and with genuine emotion the dreams and expectations he has for all schools and teacher: "Education is much more than merely minting students who are easy for schools and teachers to handle. A teacher's job is more than just teaching and guiding students, it is also to associate closely with them."新學年又開始了。在北海道一間專供智障學童入讀的高中，青山龍平老師正在迎接新生。當中一位名叫高志的學生智商不算低，但過去曾受同學欺侮，心靈創傷使他從此一言不發。另一位學生佑矢就更是問題多多。他總是不肯乖乖坐著，一時大呼小叫，一時又像一枝箭似的飛奔出課室；問他甚麼也好，答案就衹有一個：午後紅茶－他最喜愛的飲料。資深老師也拿他沒法，於是把佑矢交給新到任的小林老師看管，害得他沒一刻能放鬆，差點得了神經衰弱。直到一天，一件前所未有的事發生了：佑矢忽然跳了起來，想要搶奪北川老師手中的文稿。這時，一直沒開口說過一句話的高志忽然疾言厲色地罵他。更令人意外的是郤是佑矢的反應──他第一次順著別人的意思去做。自那一天起，學校有了重大的改變，不僅是學生，老師也一樣……資料來源︰電影雙周刊—Home Entertainment DVD (香港)

回复 :Masked figures with machine guns march into the secondary school in Karatas, take the pupils hostage, and execute one of them. They make no demands. Silent terror is their modus operandi. Seeing as the army will take two days to arrive due to a snowstorm, maths teacher Tazshi decides to assemble his own assault team: his ex-wife, the gym teacher, the cowardly school principal, an alcoholic night watchman, the village idiot, and an incompetent chief of police.What follows is no traditional action film, but a thriller with snatches of comedy, in which the enemy isn’t hidden behind masks, but is in the minds of the liberators. Before they act, they have to overcome their personal demons. Comparisons to the school hostage-takings in Beslan and Kazan are obvious, yet Karatas – the mythical village where much of director Adilkhan Yerzhanov’s work is set – could be anywhere. It is universally acknowledged that crises bring out people's true natures.
