I think this is the questions of extraneous, out-of-place, or extra loud sounds beyond what you would expect in real life.

Just last night I heard one in a movie. A prop plane ran out of fuel and the engine cut out. It then made an emergency landing on a runway. The camera angle cut to a closeup of the plane as it glided to a stop. As it stopped, you could hear the engine cutting out again.

It was probably added in during the editing process, and maybe they had other scenes built the same way when the plane landed with the engine still going. I mean, the engine would normally be cutting out then, but not in this case. It was an error. But sometimes I wonder if they do these things intentionally.
