Displaying an unwavering commitment to putting country over self, Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger sacrificed his career and personal relationships by publicly demanding accountability for Donald Trump's role in the January 6 insurrection. Filmed during Kinzinger's final year in Congress, THE LAST REPUBLICAN reveals behind-the-scenes insights into the explosive January 6 committee hearings while delving into what drove him to take a stand as well as the lasting impact of his decision.

New York Times

The combative camaraderie that Pink and Kinzinger demonstrate respects both of them as humans — without softening their stances one bit. I hope to see more films like this one in the years to come.

Mostly elides Kinzinger's positions on various issues, seemingly to make him more palatable here as a Capra-esque hero who is exclusively defined by standing up to corruption, and against a politician that the filmmaker also opposes.

Rated: 2.5/4

Frank Scheck

The Hollywood Reporter

The handsome, charismatic and extremely articulate politician proves a natural camera subject and self-deprecatingly takes pains to downplay his moral stance.

The Last Republican offers a remarkable profile of courage and conviction against daunting threats, sycophantic fealty, and blatant lies masking contemptible cowardice.

Rated: 4/5

Mildly engaging, but often dull, myopic and incomplete.

Kinsinger is not the last republican he’s a RINO (republican in name only) he’s a “The View” republican, a strawman of actual republican values that is pushed over by the slightest criticism. This isn’t the last republican he’s the last republican we want on our side.

If more politicians were like Adam Kinsinger and Luz Cheney our democracy would be stronger and safer. Inspiring. Thank you Congressman.

My husband and I watched it with reluctance as we thought it would be a rah-rah doc about Adam Kinzinger, but it was really heartwarming to see how much he struggled with his decision. It was not easy to go against your whole life up bringing, but at some point in our lives we might have to do this and he did. He would make a great Sec. of Defence one day.

Portrait of an American hero doing the right thing for his country under great duress and cost to his own career. I grew up in his district and I could not be prouder, thank you Congressman, you give me hope that there are still honorable decent men.

Flabbergasting that people believe character and ethics are based on results of your ethics and character. Indicative of the decline of American ethics and character. Quite sad.
