But to generalize it, they sacrificed themselves for one another. Don't get me wrong, it is a very noble concept, but I have to be blunt and say that good deeds do not get you into Heaven. The film already had us fooled when Jay loosely reads the bible (revelations) at one point saying that "good people were brought up into heaven....
