I think the fact that De Niro and Hoffman were in Meet the Fockers kind of makes them a bit more common place.

Redford probably wouldn't have his name attached to any old movie unless he were really confident in it and it had a certain calibre.

Well Lions For Lambs got pretty well trounced by critics and flopped at the box office as I recall.
