Higher charge density in a metal ion usually leads to stronger ionic bonding and higher melting points. In the video I used AlCl₃ as an example, but this was misleading — Al³⁺ is so polarising that AlCl₃ becomes largely covalent (forming Al₂Cl₆ molecules), so its melting point is actually much lower than NaCl and MgCl₂.
