This is why we need night mode or dynamic compression on some soundtracks, to have comfortable listening at home.
Things were better when THX was around. Most people remember THX for the mad intros, but actually it was just a set of norms to watch (and hear) a movie as perfectly as possible. It went as far as theatre exit lights shining on the projection screen being mentioned.
For audio, 85dB absolute was set as reference "0 dB" and the dialogue should be 20dB under that, IIRC.
