AIBU to watch a (loud) action film in my own house?

Neighbour just came over and complained that my film is too loud! It's an action film I was watching with my boys, one is ill and it was a treat. I do find it annoying that in action films the dialogue is usually quiet and mumbly so you have to turn it up to hear what they're saying, then the music and action sequences are loud and crashy.

But I was very surprised to get a knock from my neighbour. He didn't even ask nicely if I could turn it down, he didn't even say hello (or goodbye) just stood there complaining about how loud it was.

AIBU to watch that type of film in a semi detached house? Or is he being U for coming to complain and not even managing to be polite about it?

Make as much fucking noise as you like in your own house during reasonable waking hours!

Considering that it was pushing 9 and kids were probably in bed, then surely you'd think the OP was being unreasonable.

It was 8pm when he came round if that helps, TV room well away from kids bedrooms though, there's no way they'd have been able to hear it.
