In addition to my previously mentioned Crash, Traffic and to a lesser extent Southland Tales ... one of my favorite all-star ensemble character actor casts was Tim Robbins' "The Player."

It was an entertaining flick as well.

Forgot to add, if you couldn't swim, it was a bad idea to mention it to John Wayne.

When you can try to drown women and children in movies and the audience still loves you; that's star power.

Al Pacino
Dustin Hoffman
Madonna
Kathy Bates
Dick Van Dyke
James Caan

Plus some others who weren't huge stars but pretty recognizable like Paul Sorvino

Nothing close. If you were a comic and not in this movie, you fired your agent.
