I believe some TVs report that they have surround sound to streaming services despite really only having Stereo. On some services like Prime and (I think) Netflix you can manually choose the audio track. Give it a shot. It's not perfect, but it helps a good bit.

I watched 28 Weeks Later last week, on my 5.1 system, and the mixing was absolutely atrocious. I was constantly adjusting the volume up to hear dialogue, only for a loud as fuck jump scare to blast out my ear drums.

Completely ruined any enjoyment I would have gotten from it.

There's tools to normalize audio in a movie. Dynamic range compression or something like the dynaudnorm filter in ffmpeg.

Yeah, I was streaming it on Prime, or HBO Max or something so... wasn't really an option at the time.
