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?

shows the episode number that you should have watched up to before-hand.
That's if you don't want any spoilers. Quoted below;

> **Part 1**

>   1. Clash in the Land of Snow - after episode 101
>
>   2. Legend of the Stone of Gelel - after episode 160
>
>   3. Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom - after episode 196

won't confuse you regarding the storyline as they are their own short stories.
