YESSSSSS! This is one of my favourite things about the movie! I LOVE that last shot where their foreheads are pressed together, rather than in a kiss. It's a really well-framed shot (they gave Mako a lot of well-framed shots in this movie, I thought). I also like that it's a buddy movie without the slapstick ridiculousness, and all the deepness that a friendship could have, esp given those circumstances.
