About This Movie

Nobody's Perfect is a curious entry in the realm of military comedies, with director Alan Rafkin steering the ship through a series of misadventures aboard the U.S.S. Bustard in Japan. The crew's theft of a Buddha statue sets off a chain of events that balances humor and tension, poking fun at the absurdities of military life while threading a fine line regarding international relations. The pacing feels like a good mix of slapstick and situational comedy, with Doc Willoughby, the ship's petty officer, stealing scenes with his antics. The performances are a bit exaggerated which fits the overall tone of the film, capturing the chaos of the crew's escapades. The practical effects, although not groundbreaking, add a certain charm to the narrative as it unfolds.

Mix of slapstick and situational humor.The performance by Doc Willoughby is particularly engaging.Interesting take on military life and cultural tensions.
