Naruto the Movie 1

 Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow

 Story

Team 7 of the Village hidden in the leaves had received a new A-ranked mission. In preparation, the team leader: Kakashi, had sent Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura to do research. The movie they were sent to watch was of an unlucky princess named Fuun who was fighting her arch nemesis, Mao.
The mission they had been given was to protect the actress playing princess Fuun as they travel to the Land of Snow where they were going to shoot their next assignment. After having forced an unwilling actress on board a ship towards the Land of Snow, they quickly realize that there is more going on that first presumed. The actress playing the princess was in fact a real princess of the Land of Snow, who had been forced to flee from her country after a coup of a rogue ninja named Doto. The man still has some unfinished business with the princess and Team 7 suddenly has a dangerous group of enemies they have to fight against.

Naruto the Movie has the same amount of content as an entire filler arc in the Naruto series. Though most of the character development went to the people Team 7 was supposed to protect and their enemies, there is still a fair amount of development to be found. Meaning that the movie is a condensed filler arc, so to speak, set somewhere after episode 101 of the series. Where the series would pad things out beyond belief, the movie goes through it in just a few minutes, giving it a solid pace.
Like with the filler arcs though, the story is both deep as shallow at the same. It gives the right amount of drama for the viewer to feel with the characters, but it doesn’t do enough for you to start caring for them as if they were a part of the main cast in the series. Also like with the filler arcs, the main characters of the Naruto series are given little to no personal development. Although we do get more information on Kakashi Sensei’s past as an ANBU Black Ops member.
