Critical response

Writing in AllMovie, author and film critic Hal Erickson described the film as "a standard wartime melodrama with the usual assortment of cliches," noting that "the economies in Battle Stations extend to its opening-credit music, which has been lifted bodily from Max Steiner's score for The Caine Mutiny."[3] Film review site The Movie Scene described the film as having "that same sense of patriotism and propaganda about it which those movies made during WWII had," that "it feels like who ever wrote it had watched dozens of other movies about life at sea during the war, picked out all the bits which they liked right down [to] the music and then slotted them together," and that it "delivers plenty of cliche."[4]
