Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3.5/5 --
It also has some very good sequences that are not at all expected, including the smashing basketball game that concludes the film.

Rating: 2/4 --
An earnest, mostly believable study of the psychological struggle that can occur between player and coach.

TV Guide
Rating: 3/4 --
The movie's concocted out of story ingredients as old as the hills... but it's acted with such grace and good humor that we really care about what happens.

Chicago Sun-Times
Attractive if soft-centred basketball story, a sort of junior Rocky.

If Robby Benson's smile doesn't make you melt, you haven't got a heart.

...So decent and entertaining....A lot of the success...has to do with the performance by writer-actor Benson...

Description by OLDIES.com:
Henry Steele (Robby Benson) is a small-town high school basketball whiz. Recruited by a big-time college team, he's given a four-year, no-cut scholarship, an allowance and a pretty tutor (Annette O'Toole). And he's still not prepared for the bitter, sometimes brutal experiences he will face in the fast lane of collegiate hoops.
One on One is family entertainment that consistently scores. Coming off his big-screen splash in Ode to Billy Joe, Benson transformed his love of basketball into a screenplay (co-authored with his father) full of truth and heart reminiscent of Rocky and Hoosiers. Under veteran director Lamont Johnson, he, O'Toole and G.D. Spradlin as Henry's ruthless coach give performances that hit the mark. Your spirits will soar with this story of a winner.
