Review:

The cinematic is like any average cinematic, a dramatic soundtrack playing in the background, ...
The dialogue is very well written, although you can barely hear the voice actor.
The environment is OK, but some of the doodads really don't fit. I mean outland doodads in a green battlefield?
And why is the text being shown on the screen as a game message and not just shown as a transmission from a unit? It's sometimes not readable due to the background objects.
Also this cinematic cannot be viewed by multiple people on battle.net or lan due its size being above the 8mb limit.
The cinematic also misses a real outro, maybe fade out, show the credits or something.
The battle scene could have been better, maybe some cool and flashy effects, units jumping, ...
Also the camera work could have been better, it should always be moving, but the viewer could see everything.
Also I suggest you check this tutorial out, it tells you how to make the camera transitions completely smooth.
My rating would be 2/5, it's nothing special, it's also not polished, the terrain needs some improvements and the camera work can still be improved.

The description on the hive could also be better, maybe some screenshots?

At least polish the cinematic a bit more and work on the cameras, then it could be approved.
