Has anyone noticed a problem with some movies the last few years?

So many times when I'm watching a movie from home, I find myself getting into a grueling battle with the sound. The dialogue is quiet, but whenever music and sound effects occur, the volume is suddenly turned up to max volume. It's like this watching movies on TV, computer, and other devices. I find myself having to be beside a remote control to turn the volume down when it all of a sudden starts blaring.

I watch movies from all decades, but I seem to be having this problem with only movies from the last 7 years or so. I think it's the way they are mixing the films. Like they're trying to make it as surround sound as possible, but it only works well under certain speakers.
