You shouldn't experience any problems downloading movies, they do take alot longer though....
Maybe choose the files with the most hosts and always check your files using the Bitzi web lookup, this is always a good idea when your just starting out as so many files contain viruses or their not what they should be....
This link will explain what Bitzi is and how to use it...
