iMovie likes H.264, Mp4/AAC. If your Go Pro vids are Mp4 you can try them in iMovie. If they don't work, try making a copy of the vid and converting the copy to Mp4/AAC with the free download Handbrake. You can get Handbrake here:
A simple way to do it without fooling with settings is to open Handbrake and do a File/Open Source. Navigate to your video and choose it as the source from the resulting screen. Then do File/Start Encoding. Wait a couple of minutes for the conversion to complete. Then save and import the converted clip into iMovie. It should work fine. If still doesn't work you can try redoing the conversion but this time manually entering the Mp4/AAC settings.
