I like the little flying hunters, they have a nice realistic touch, not the usual sci-fi crap but where is the story (or any script for that matter)? It doesn't feel like a short film but simply an action scene (with an uber-lame ending I might add). Anyway, a nice look it definitely has.

edit: This reminds me of a great short film I saw some years (or so) ago. If only I could find it again...
edit2: Found and watched it again. :) - http://www.atom.com/funny_videos/prey_alone/

Nice models, effects and technology.  Someone really did the lighting well with that flying officer robot going down the alley way.  But the telekinesis did it in for me.  After the irises turning bronze bit, I didn't care what happened next.  As Rimmon indicated, these are all effects guys looking for someone with a real script.
