That's a bad review. The movie was a satire, it's not supposed to make sense like a normal movie would, rather it's holding up a funhouse mirror to current events.
For example, SA presents as a contradiction:
> It depicts elites as simultaneously incompetent and omnicompetent.
But this is exactly what we see in the real world. Take the iPhone for example: a marvel of technology with a cretinous supply chain and amoral-at-best business model. Or VW, great cars but we could do without the emissions scandal. Or the tech industry, great tech (mostly) but they turn around and have a that "no poaching" scandal. Bankers have their LIBOR scandal, etc. Really, "simultaneously incompetent and omnicompetent" is the order of the day, yeah?
