I had this same problem. The way I solved it was to go into the app store, and specifically click on iMovie. The tab there mentioned something like 'upgrade' (where normally you would see 'buy'). If I click on that, there is a pull down menu that says that I do not have the lastest operating system for the new movie, but that I can reinstall the older version. When I clicked on that option, it reinstalled iMovie (which for some reason just hadn't worked in Mountain Lion). It worked just fine. I didn't have to pay. If you are signed in at the app store, and click on iMovie, hopefully you will be presented with this option as well.
