Maybe it's just me, but I actually liked Australia. It didn't hurt that Hugh Jackman was in it. It's about three hours.
Australian and New Zealand accents are a little twangier; Irish accents are softer and sort of similar to Scottish in a way, except Scottish vowels are tighter. None of that is really helpful, but yeah, I would try movie trailers. Actually, this video is pretty awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UgpfSp2t6k
