Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A Home Too Far and its sequel, A Home Too Far 2: End of the Road is a duology of war movies directed by Taiwanese director Kevin Chu. The series is known to be the best serious war movies ever made in Taiwan, which isn't saying much because Taiwan has made less than 10 war movies throughout its history of cinema, and most of them are either below average, mediocre or So-Bad-Its-Good.The movies follows a band of soldiers from the Republic of China Army and their families, fleeing the Chinese civil war after the cultural revolution, where the resulting exodus have caused their members, military and civilian alike, to die in droves.The films notably follows the point-of-view of several key characters: Sergeant Teng Ke-pao, a soldier who had to look out for his wife and two children while trying to survive, Little Tu (Andy Lau), a rebel leader and defector who returned to the army because of his sense of duty, and Fan Long, a prisoner-of-war who escaped his prison camp from Burma.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| A Home Too Far / int_3d699462 | comment |
Curb-Stomp Battle: Most of the battles the soldiers of the Republic of China Army end with them on the losing side. Justified because they are refugees fleeing from the horrors of war, are low on supplies and medical care, exhausted from running all the time, and are at the mercy of whatever harsh conditions the war has to offer. | |

Death World | |
| A Home Too Far / int_63557923 | comment |
Death World: The forests of Southern China in the first movie is depicted in this manner, where poisonous gases left behind from the war lingers in the air, the plants are lethal and can kill with a scratch, the water is completely unsafe for drinking, and most of the refugees trying to cross the forest ends up dying en masse. | |
