When I do the blu ray or dvd master (audio), I always keep in mind that home viewers will not (or only in some rare and extreme cases) be able to listen to the mix with the levels and headroom that a cinema provides. So I deliberately choose to reduce the dynamics for those masters. The idea is to do that so that it still sounds good of course...
On an action flick like MI:3 I imagine that the original dynamics are way above what anyone not having a proper screening room could handle.
I wouldn't say it's "dumbed down", only that it is adapted to the majority of viewers for that format. And this coming from someone who just loves the dynamics that cinema reproduction offers!
