The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story

If any of us in our daily lives with normal problems face fears, stress, anxiety, etc. I can only imagine what Miles, being so young and inexperienced, may be facing, but, although Miles does not always remember or keep it in mind, he counts on his dad who always, despite everything, has time for whatever his son needs.

In this universe the animation is fabulous and on this occasion the way in which they occupy it in the protagonist's environment to make you feel his emotions is brutal and scary. Besides that, I don't have much to add, being such a fan, having any extra of the spider-verse is always appreciated, but unfortunately the short film is so short that I don't even have time to enjoy it.

In a Short, Sony and Marvel did brilliant to create a relatable adventure for Miles Morales' Spider-Man. The animation is well-done just like the Film that comes before it (Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse) and the music is also put together nicely to keep it a calm and engaging experience. It also sends the correct message across in a way where Anxiety is the Villain and that anyone can over come it. You don't need superpowers to prove Anxiety wrong and you don't need them to prove doubts wrong. You can always open up to someone likes Miles did to his Father and whatever is going on in your life between Miles' struggles of homework and fighting crime, there will always be someone there to support him in life.

The Spider Within: A Spider-verse Story is a great short film with an amazing message at its core that makes Miles Morales even more relatable. Watching him struggle with something so universal as anxiety and finding help by talking about it with his father is beautiful, superheroes have rarely felt this human.

Even in 7 minutes, it shows how this franchise is bolder, more mature, and more exciting than so much of the competition. It was never in doubt but it's also nice to have further proof of how perfect the soundtracks to Spider-verse films are with a closing credits song worthy of the previous two films.

The animation is stunning as usual, a love letter to the source material that visualises Miles' anxiety in very interesting ways and still finds time to throw in quick references to iconic Spider-Man imagery. It leans into horror like never before and confirms that animation is a way better and more creatively freeing medium than live action could ever be.

This short film was an interesting additional story, to add the ever-growing movies for Miles Morales, As the newest Spider-Man superhero this film makes a lot of sense, having to balance being a superhero and his normal life also, the fear and anxiety he was going through is normal because of the dangers of being a superhero involves. This felt like a spinoff horror movie with some of the scenes in this short film.

I like how Miles Morales can still feel relatable as a normal teenager to many people even as a superhero. The animation was great and as a Miles Morales Spider-Man fan it was great seeing new content with Miles Morales. I recommend this to anyone who watched the previous movies and is a fan of Spider-Man, Miles Morales and superhero media in general.

The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story is a short film about Miles Morales from the Spider-Verse movies dealing with being Spider-Man. It's about 7 minutes long, so it doesn't have the time to have as much of a story that's in either of the Spider-Verse movies. It's still good for what we have in it. This is at least something to help satisfy us until Beyond the Spider-Verse releases. With that, it doesn't take place between Across and Beyond. It actually takes place between Into and Across, it just released after Across. It does show more development to Miles with him being stressed out being Spider-Man, of which goes with the Kevin Love Fund and the Hero Within Initiative it is going on with. Overall, that makes it a good short film.
