<p>I barely started watching anime, and <em>Naruto</em> was the first anime I watched. I'm currently in the middle of <em>Naruto Shippuden</em> (episode 71).</p>

<p>Before I go on, do I have to watch any of the movies, or can I watch them anytime? If it's necessary, what's the order to watch the movies?</p>

I barely started watching anime, and *Naruto* was the first anime I watched. I'm currently in the middle of *Naruto Shippuden* (episode 71).

Before I go on, do I have to watch any of the movies, or can I watch them anytime? If it's necessary, what's the order to watch the movies?
