I'm burning this movie file onto a CD-R, and it says its too big for the cd. Is there anywayz i can compress the file to smaller or somehow burn it to my CD-R?

Probably not. Movies downloaded using Kazaa/K-Lite are already compressed.
If you compress them any more, the quality would make them un-viewable.

Large movie files can be split into two parts.
Dvdrhelp.com (http://www.dvdrhelp.com) is well worth exploring to understand that process and the necessary software needed(easily available, nudge, nudge, wink, wink).

But, more information is needed to accurately answer your question.

What type of burning software are you using and can it "overburn?"
Are you burning a data disc or creating a video CD(vcd)?
What is the file type(.avi, .mpg)?
What is the file size?

Movie splitter, what program do you recommend me to use to split it?
