Amazon.com:
The Legend of the Stone of Gelel (2005) follows the cast of the popular comedy-adventure Naruto on what should be an extremely simple mission: returning a missing ferret to its owner. But no mission is simple when knuckle-headed ninja-in-training Naruto Uzumaki is involved. Soon, he, Sakura, and Shikamaru (not Sosuke) are battling Temujin, a mysterious young warrior in Western medieval armor. At the behest of his lord Master Haido, Temujin is seeking the legendary Stones of Gelel, which bestow unimaginable power on the possessor--power the ninjas can't allow Haido to have. The second Naruto movie suffers from an underdeveloped story: the viewer never learns the source of the Stones' power, nor the origins of Master Haido and his nefarious crew. Although Naruto wins out through a mixture of determination, integrity, and mule-headed stubbornness, the most exciting jutsu are employed by Gaara of the Sand Village, a former enemy who becomes an ally. Legend of the Stone of Gelel is more satisfying than the incongruous Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow (2004), which moved the characters to modern Hollywood. But neither film captures all the fun of the broadcast series. The disc of extras includes some rather standard making-of mini-documentaries, the storyboards for the film, the Japanese trailers, and a trailer for the third Naruto feature, Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom.(Rated T+ Older Teen; suitable for ages 12 and older: violence, grotesque imagery) --Charles Solomon

Rating : - I decided to watch what was supposed to be a good Naruto movie and got an FMA interpretation instead...
The first movie was nothing special, but it was a good transition for the series to have a movie. It had some interesting fight scenes and even a funny opening scene. It was an interesting film though, and had enough action to keep me interested.

This offering is well... in a word, awful. I saw this back in the summer and I still can't stop thinking about how dissapointed I was. I am a Naruto fan and I was rather quite excited to watch the movie. Now here's what I thought:

WHAT IT DID RIGHT:
-Good action scenes
-The scene in the beginning with the ferret and the pot was funny
-Animation was quite good
-GREAT MUSIC!!! Our favorites are used here, as with a few new songs

WHAT IT DID WRONG:
-The storyline is boring. Not slow, just boring!!!! It was very contrived and seemed to be missing lots, and rather felt derived at times.
-UNDERUSED CHARACTERS. Sasuke is only in it for (literally) 5 seconds. Gaara has a whopping 5 minutes of screen time. What happened?
-The dialoge was CORNY.
-When I read the "Naruto" title card, I wasn't expecting an FMA interpretation. This movie had way too much Full Metal Alchemist and 20% of it felt Naruto-esque.
-Poorly concieved new characters
-By the end, I was really cheering for the villain. And you know that's not a good thing.

Overall, this was an awful movie, and it sure feels more like a glorified fanfiction but in anime film. Only see it if you're a die hard fan.
