I very much liked the match up between the spirit of the song and the movie. And the Danny/Rusty parts of the movie were my favorite parts anyway (ok, except for Elliot Gould, wo was just so perfect), and what's not to love about men wearing suits that good and that well? Light-hearted, more than a little sly, and rhythmically very watchable. I enjoyed it a lot.
As for 6 Underground--
I never really watched the show; caught a few episodes here and there, but it wasn't really my thing (my adoration for the original movie knows no bounds, but that's another story), so I can't speak for the emotional impact. However, I thought technically, stylistically, it was superb. The mood of the music and images worked very well, and the use of effects was impressive.
And, since my Bro is/was a HUGE Nikita fan, I made him watch it. He really liked it a lot. He was impressed by the way you highlighted key moments in the Nikita/Michael relationship, and he particularly liked the shots you chose for the parts where you superimposed the characters' faces as he says those were really important in each characters' development. I suppose the best praise is that, when the vid finished he asked "You're going to keep that, right?"
