As for Naruto...

Nate 'Naruto' Johnson will be an average kid living in New York city. He will likely have just moved to New York with his dying mother and absent, work-a-haulic, father. He will struggle to fit in at his new school where kids will constantly beat him up and mock him except for the smartest girl in school 'Sally' and the quiet girl 'Hinata'. One day after getting beaten up he will stumble across a store of ancient chinese (not Japanese. Because Hollywood.) mysticism in which the store owner will give him a scroll because he can sense some great evil or the like coming and it can only be stopped if Nate trains in the ancient art of the 'Hokage'. Nate will take the scroll home and study the ancient art of chakra but be utterly confused by it despite it being laid out in terms so simple an eight-year-old could understand it. He will attempt to use this chakra in order to beat up the school bully 'Sasuke' (pronouced Sa-Suke, because Hollywood.) only to fail miserably.

He will, dejectedly, give up right as the ancient fox demon starts to appear, likely infecting whatever two comic relief antagonists are around with ancient power. They will proceed to go on a rampage and it will be up to Nate to stop them despite not being able to do the smallest thing with it. During the conflict he will unlock the power to call upon the shadow clone technique which will, somehow, be enough to defeat the stock villains. Their CGI will be so obvious and fake that the Conan movies will look more realistic. At this point the bully Sasuke will be revealed to know how to use Chakra and the demon will convince him to attack and kill Naruto (likely with little to no presuasion needed) however Naruto will proceed to defeat him and Sasuke will not attempt to pursue.

The fox demon will arrive and take both 'Sally' and Hinata hostage. 'Sally' will likely have been previously established as capable with chakra and possibly tried to help Nate out but will be rendered entirely helpless here, likely via being grabbed in the standard female disarmament area (upper arm), despite having probably flipped a dumpster without a thought earlier. This will all take place in some NYC landmark area as well, likely the Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, or Central Park. Because there is nowhere else in New York City of course. Nate will fight back against the fox demon but be entirely helpless until Sasuke returns, having undergone a change of heart off-screen, to save the day and fight back. Despite this the two will still fail until Nate attempts the Rasengan (a move which he likely tried earlier but couldn't get even the smallest bit from) which will defeat the fox demon sealing him inside of Nate's belly, all while likely tearing up the NYC streets and destroying a landmark entirely.

Also...

Depending on the preference of the writer the NYC cops will either be helpful, complete idiots, or outright obstructive.

The man who sold the scroll will NOT be any of Naruto's teachers at any point in the series or, if so, the guy from the very first episode (because, let's face it, they only watched 15 minutes of episode 1).

The ramen shop will make an appearence but will either be a NYC food cart serving ramen or look extremely out of place... likely with chinese lettering or some of the stupidest japanese stereotypes possible to get away with in Hollywood.

There will be at least three celebrity guest-appearances, one of which will be a generic Michael Bay-esque female star (whom Naruto will transform into by accident in a comedy scene before likely turning into a plant or another cameo) and one who will be an actual fan of Naruto and despise the movie, regretting that it was ever made.
