I think what I really wanted at the end was for the cube to be about a foot across, and there to be two scientists bending over it going "Ooh look! One of them got out!" Then the other goes "Hmm. Run it again, this time without the bridge chamber." See, they're not just clones, they're miniature clones!
I suspect you saw it a few years ago (when it first came out?) so the "slice them into bits and have them stick together for a few seconds" gag wasn't old news. I was fully expecting it as soon as the little red lines appeared so it didn't put me on edge quite so much.
Fun fact: The guy who dies in the first scene-setting segment gets billed above Quentin The Cop (which is the character's name as billed). I agree that Quentin's madness wasn't wholly out of character, I mostly just didn't like it because it was nasty.
