Gran Torino (can them maintain this level?)

There has definitely been some good movies released so far this year, Gran Torino is one of them. The acting in this movie is top shelf, then are is the man Eastwood himself.
What can I possibly say that others haven't already. We all know actors and/or acting do not make a movie. There is the script, the cinematography and so and and so forth. Excellent movies like this one could be considered the perfect storm of all these.
The only thing that worries me is this year (movies) has started off so strongly that it is hard to believe that they (hollywood) will be able to keep this up for the full year.
I would be over joyed if I was proven wrong, if this year (movies) maintains this level then that compared to many years gone past would be an enlightening experience to the mass who have for to long been feed mindless dribble.
