It's cut and dry actually.. just research MBS, CDO...
This was a comedy? Those critics must have skipped seeing the movie.
shareThe funny thing is though that the filmmakers tried to simplify it as much as they could, to the point of including fourth-wall-breaking celebrity cameos.

The terms were still confusing. That said, I understood the point most of the time, which is a good result and started to understand better when seeing the film a second time.
A tremendous film.
