Completed film a step too far? (9)

I believe the answer is:

overshoot

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a step too far?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'completed film' is the wordplay.
'completed' becomes 'over' (synonyms).
'film' becomes 'shoot' (synonyms).
'over'+'shoot'='OVERSHOOT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for overshoot that I've seen before include "Fly beyond" , "Go past the mark" , "Go too far" , "Taxi too much, perhaps" , "Go past unintentionally" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
