Looks good man, but to me its a little disjointed and hard to see whats going on, sort of jumps from one thing to another but with no meaning so to speak, I know its just an intro but a bit of tweeking to give it some continuity and it would look great

the city was mostly modeled in this case. I however put a picture behind to fill whatever holes there were.
When you zoom out Its pretty much a modified time square sort of design.

Yeah looks great,

only crits are that at the start where the car is going fast, should try get a better+louder engine sound(yeah i know how hard it is to find on the net but there should be some out there) also does move abit to quick from one place to another, as in the screenshots the car is under the truck ... i didnt really see that in the movie as it was pretty quick,

keep up the good work,
