The movie, eh. It's has the same problem that AC did in that there's not much narrative on display if you're not following all of the material up to that point. It follows how the empire takes down Lucius, and I couldn't say how important knowing that will be to the plot of the actual game. I've heard conflicting things there.
The anime on the other hand I'd definitely recommend. It goes into how Noctis became friends with the other guys, with the Prompto episode being the highlight for me. There's also only five of them that are fifteen minutes each, so they won't take up much of your time.
