Nice storyline and the cinematography works well, but there are a couple of things that let this down. Firstly, it's a shame we can't really see the characters lip movements. And, the movement feels a lot like the old Thunderbird and Captain Scarlett string puppets. If that was your intention, though, you did well.

the man who shoved the dude in the car is a little stiff moving from point A to B. Just smooth it out a bit. Great work!

The animation is good but still clearly on its early stages (there are barely no inbetweens, and the hands have no animations) and the camera angle doesn't quite pick up the lipsync.
