A two-year-old could tell you why people go to the beach. So there's no need to watch Shore Things, a documentary that explores that very question. Producer/writer/narrator/Rick Sebak looks at beaches from Cape Cod, Massachusetts to Venice, California to Oahu, Hawaii. Though the film provides some historical information on each area, it comes across as a long commercial telling us what we already know. Aud: P. (L. Russo)
