Hot take: The movies aren't necessary for the main story. Watch 'em for extra thrills but don't stress about fitting them into the anime timeline.
From personal experience, the Naruto Shippuden movies are like bonus adventures. Though they aren't essential to the main plot, they're packed with awesome action and give you more time with your favorite characters. Enjoy them without overthinking the timeline!
Movies like 'The Last: Naruto the Movie' and 'Boruto: Naruto the Movie' are more canon-ish, fitting into the timeline towards the end of Shippuden and the beginning of Boruto. So, watch those if you're following the story closely!
Naruto Shippuden movies are mostly non-canon and don't affect the main storyline. They generally fit in between episodes or arcs. For example, the first Shippuden movie, 'Naruto Shippuden the Movie,' fits best after episode 32. Just enjoy them as fun side stories!
