Boring and empty

Warning: Spoilers
"The Malibu Bikini Shop" actually has more story than most movies of its type, but nevertheless ends up feeling a lot more empty and boring than you'd expect.

The story is about two brothers, one an overachiever, the other a party animal, who inherit a bikini shop and a house on the beach when their aunt dies. They decide to hang on to the shop, complete with a two-way mirror they install in the changing rooms so that they can spy on girls, but then a baddie wants to buy them out so they have to put their heads together and sell more bikinis than ever before.

They do this with what looks like a music video sequence. There are lots of other such sequences in the movie: girls running or dancing in bikinis. It's cinematic dead air, deathly boring, and impossible to concentrate on.

There is also nudity, of course, though no eroticism, and nothing full frontal.
