Not the bit where the main protagonist dies but after that

I'd give the main bulk of the film 9/10!

Spoiler: 

Its a tough one all right, but its essentially (i think) suggesting that Ellis (the cop) has just given up, he cant face "what's coming" and doesn't even understand it, he's given in and is retiring, ergo "No country for old men", its just beyond his comprehension what this guy is doing or why.

Its also hinting that after his own father died on his doorstep by a gunman, that he just escaped, (remember the hotel room with the bad guy behind the door) he stands on that door step for a looooong time thinking, he eventually goes in realised its too late and then just slumps on the bed. Im guessing more relived that he wasn't there than anything else.

Thats my take on it anyway.
