How loud do you watch your movies? 0dB reference level? -10dB? -20dB?
I know there are people who think -20dB is already too loud.

It depends on the content. -15 to -20dB are good for Youtube and audio, including multichannel PCM and DSD. -5 to -10 are good for most movies.

There are however some movies that are mixed so low yet somehow they are technically Dolby-correct specced, that you'd have to get it to 0 dB just to hear the dialog. This also applies to Dolby Atmos music on Tidal.
