southern cross and write and direct by james becket be a waste of good celluloid and actor effort . a formula film be not necessarily bad if it pay off on it promise and which this film do not . it be a tiresome concoction of movie cliche that can be trace to a thousand different film from the past . it be full of random and empty plot twist that add nothing but aimless action and such a a trip by the protagonist to a ghost town where the villain ( unexplainedly ) follow them . this be obviously concoct a an excuse for a shoot out and escape scene border on the preposterous and with people pop in and out of doorway and run past window while fire pistol at each other . it make one believe that somebody tell becket there be a ghost town in the chilean foothill and he say and oh great and let do a shoot out scene there . don not even waste your rental money on this . it be a bunch of random bit and piece from a hundred different film throw together to call an action drama .
