As a music video for the Indie genre, I believe that it fits quite nicely with the music. But, in saying that, I think that there are a few minor problems with it.
The first of note would be the potentially confusing story. The characters are introduced in a way which essentially shows no background/history, thus the audience may have a hard time telling what the plot is. This is from feedback from one person, in which they stated that they were confused as to the plot.
Another person stated that they were confused by the ending (where we jump from Westminster bridge to Brighton's west pier) without a fade or story continuation leading up to it. Personally, I think that this is a fair opinion, as I do think that it jumps too quickly between London and Brighton.
But, amongst the constructive criticism, many noted that the composition of the shots, colour (i.e. White balance kept the colours fairly similar) and shallow depth of field created a nice atmosphere, and the use of familiar locations (Westminster bridge & Big Ben were the most notable) allowed them to connect with the video better.
