Well,
Surf Ninjas... a 93 comedic family film involving martial arts. Stars Ernie Reyes Jr.
Chairman of the Board, a 98 movie starring Carrot Top in which a surfer/a wacky inventor (Carrot Top) suddenly inherits and runs a billionaire's company.
Pointbreak (Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swazey) some painful dialogue and awkward surfer stereotyping.
Airborne is about a displaced surfer. Californian Surfer goes to Seattle WA, so it's a chimera of surfing, hockey and inline roller-skating. So there is surfing in the beginning and in soft of flashback scene, but to regain respect he's playing the local games. Like an 80s Johnny Tsunami.
Johnny Tsunami is a 99 Disney movie of a surfer kid living in Hawaii, his grandpa is a surf legend. But then, but his dad gets a job transfer and makes Johnny move to Vermont, where he is force to adapt and he snow boards.
Meet the Deedles, a 98 American live-action Disney comedy starring Paul Walker and Steve Van Wormer. Its another one of Disney's attempts to capitalize on surf culture, the other two prime examples are Johnny Tsunami and Rip Girls. Meet the Deedles follows the story of two dimwitted surfer brothers from a wealthy family, who are expelled from their high school after several reckless shenanigans.

North Shore with Matt Adler, Gregory Harrison and Nia Peeples. I loved this movie.

Point Break is my fave.
I enjoyed Bloodsurf too... but for different reasons. Real cheesy horror flick with killer sharks, a giant crocodile and some surfing (oh yeah, and a hot chick who gets naked).

It can be pretty borderline what is a documentary and what is a movie with the surfing movies sometimes.
Surf film - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surf_film)
Then there's also movies just based around the ocean;
E.g. Puberty Blues (1981) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082956/)
(Check out the Aussie Lingo)

Being a bloke (a surfing one at that) I'm not really sure what makes a dude hot! Maybe :confused: It's cheap enough that it wouldn't matter too much if you got it and didn't like it.
Blue Juice is quite cool too.
And I know you said no documentaries, but Step Into Liquid is superb, and so is Riding Giants.
