Dude, there are at least:

Alien
Doomsday
Planet Terror
Aeon Flux (edit: not Aron Flux)
Catwoman
all Charlie’s Angels movies
and literally all Mills Jovovich movies

They are not all that well known, but the claim is still complete nonsense.

Edit:

Ultraviolet
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Sucker Punch
Salt
Pans Labyrinth
Lara Croft
Kill Bill !!! (How the f did I forget Kill Bill?)

So I realise it’s a typo, but I’m also chuckling at the idea of a “non-dei” (heavily /s) version of Aeon Flux following the life and adventures of Aron Flux.

Oh hell I need to watch at least Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon from that list. Possibly more. But a wuxia film starring Michelle Yeoh? Hell yeoh!

From the lesser known entries on this list I recommend Doomsday. But CTHD is a musst watch and even on a lot of “top X movies of all time” lists.
