Download MediaInfo Mac, then tell us what video codecs are being used. Both the general codec name given near the top, and the several codec lines from the video stream info.

The video is in MVP2 (Windows Media Video 9.1 Image V2) which may be new enough / obscure enough for VLC to not support it yet. Microsoft does love to create things that are incompatible with other platforms, to help you make the right choice and buy Windows.
VLC will eventually be able to play it. My other choices are to try Mplayer OSX Extended (latest version rev14test3 available here) and Movist. One of them may have managed early support.
