Naruto's Team 7 in Naruto the Movie: Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow

There have been a lot of Naruto movies over the years and it might not be easy to figure out the right order to watch them in on your favorite streaming service.

Naruto movies aren’t must-watch material for those just looking to get through the series, since most of them are either semi-canonical or non-canonical. The good news is that the movies are generally fun and can serve as a great compliment to the main source material. Most of these movies focus on one-off villains of immense power, but some of which tie into the main story in interesting ways.

With 11 movies that cover all three main Naruto anime series, it’s tough to keep track of which movies came out when. Here’s the full list of Naruto movies and how to watch them in order.

How to watch the Naruto movies in order

There are 11 Naruto movies, with three of them taking place during the original series, seven as part of Shippuden, and one for Boruto. Some movies don’t fit into a defined point in the main canon and have original characters that never appear otherwise. Others are worth watching in order due to their reliance on characters and events from the main series.
