Bruce Eder, writing for [[Allmovie.com]], notes, "''In Harm's Way'' has endured extraordinarily well for an epic war movie made in the 1960s, owing to a multitude of virtues. For starters, it was the last big-budget, all-star Hollywood movie to be shot in black-and-white, and that gives the film a harder, sharper, more defined edge than it ever could have had if it had been photographed in color...Add to those virtues the unexpectedly lively pacing and stunning special effects...and ''In Harm's Way'' seems like a very fast-moving two and a half hours".<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.allmovie.com/movie/in-harms-way-v24497/review |title=In Harm's Way (1965) - Otto Preminger &#124; Review &#124; AllMovie |website=www.allmovie.com |access-date=2 March 2020}}</ref>

[[Stanley Kauffmann]] of ''[[The New Republic]]'' wrote, "Preminger's latest is simply one more overlong epic of the naval war against the Japanese, with conventional story lines, characters, resolution".<ref>{{cite magazine| title=A difference in Ages| url=https://newrepublic.com| access-date=2024-05-26| magazine=The New Republic| language=en}}</ref>
