No Country for Old Men

Can someone please try to explain the ending to me. Am I stupid, was there some cryptic ending? Or just a "bad guy gets away" ending?

I loved the rest of the movie but the end was reallly dissapointing. Help me not hate this movie, please.

Thank you. See that's what I got from the ending and then I started second guessing myself.

Amping on seeing this now. Endings have to be explained, killer.
Gonna watch some of their other flicks again first. Been awhile since I was into their work.

I didn't see it as "de-mystified", more as awesomely cryptic.

I would have liked the entire movie a lot more if I didn't have to see it with my family. We have movie nights and it was my turn to pick. Hadn't seen this one, Oscar Winner etc. so it was a pretty obvious choice. Unfortunately, I had to either explain or defend it the entire time which took away from the epic-ness of the entire movie.

Loved this movie, but IMO There Will Be Blood was far better. I'm not TOO upset that No Country won for Best Picture, but IMO There Will Be Blood was more deserving.

Oh well, No Country is still fucking badass.

I don't really compare the two. but if I had too then Iwould take No country for old men.

I just compare them because they were both nominated in a lot of the same categories at the Oscar...yes, very different movies and both are AWESOME in their own way.
