A tip to achieve the same on your Mac Mini in VLC:

Preferences -> Show all (Down Left corner) -> Audio -> Filters -> Compressor

Set the attack to around 50 ms and the release to around 300 ms

Starting with these settings, go to a very quiet part of your movie. turn up the "makeup gain" until you can hear the dialogue easily. Now find some explosions, and adjust the "threshold" setting until they are a good level too.
