I completely understand all the low ratings and reviews. This is definitely a movie that if you don't like it, you are going to absolutely hate it. It is very dry comedy with lots of deadpan and significant fourth wall breaking. If you don't find anything amusing in the first 10 minutes, then you should probably move on to something else.
Over the top political commentary. Side stories that go absolutely nowhere and are seemingly just forgotten. Random plots events that make no sense to the rest of the movie. All things I normally hate in a movie, but this time it just works. The reason for this is a fourth wall break that you don't initially realize is a fourth wall break. Very early in the movie and throughout it, Adam Driver's character says, "This isn't going to end well." It isn't obvious that he's talking about the movie itself. So when all the ridiculous plot points happen and the side stories are abandoned, it is HILARIOUS because he's been telling the viewer all along that was going to happen.
