Naruto Movie 2

The second Naruto movie, titled "Naruto`s big clash in the Theatre! The illusion of the ruins of the depths of the earth!!" was released on VCD and DVD recently.

This movie features Naruto, Sakura, Shikamaru as well as Gaara and Kankurou from the hidden village of the Sands. The setting of the movie is quite different from the TV series, having a weird mix of mechanical mobile fortess, magic, monsters and weapon of mass destruction. But despite having such an usual theme, the movie is still entertaining, and is a welcome change to the badly written filler series that had millions of Naruto fans screaming in anguish.

On a side note, Naruto movie 3 have been annouced and will premiere in cinemas in Japan come August. And more bad news for Naruto fans: seems that the second season of Naruto will not commence in May as previously announced. Judging by the title of the next few Naruto episodes, it doesn't seem very likely that the second season will begin anytime soon.
