Well, eMule generally isn't known for getting individual files quickly like, say, Bittorrent. The idea is to download a number of files at once rather than getting one or two at high speed.
It also depends on how many other users are downloading the same files as you (or sharing the completed versions). New rips of new movies have hundreds of sources usually, older films don't and many links on here will have none since no one is sharing them anymore.
The two movies you were after won't be shared by many I expect, so it will probably take a while to get them. I recommend you browse the site, pick some more files you want and go away and just let eMule do its work. I usually leave eMule on overnight with 20 or so files downloading and 2 or 3 are usually finished each morning.

If you have specific questions I suggest posting them in the FAQ / Help / Newbie Guides section, rather than here which is for requests only.
Happy eMuling!
