It would be recommended to see or at least research the prequel trilogy to make sure the continuity makes sense. For the actual film theatrically made for The Clone Wars, no, I do not believe so. Overall, though, The Clone Wars as its own sub-canon and can be watched primarily without fear of any confusion; it's sort of a gateway series (although, again, due to a few characters and some twists there should be at least some research done on the prequel trilogy). I very much recommend it, at that.
