To continue on the M:I influence, there's a central MacGuffin which is the bread and butter of those movies. Rabbit's foot is the most obvious example. There's clear and deliberate influence from the John Gardner and Raymond Benson continuity books such as a nuclear extremist cult who's leader uses hypnosis to some degree when the plot needs it, there's also a vengeful Bond girl ala Melina from For Your Eyes Only who's Bond's way in to the organization and has a similar role to Ilsa Faust. I suspect and expect the M:I-inspired elements to be toned down later on because they're very protruding and obvious to anyone who has any familiarity with that series.
The film touches upon the distrust of citizens towards government and secret services , AI (albeit lightly), nuclear fears (it plays into the MacGuffin) and how tech cabals control governments though not explicitly. Amazon MGM wants a crowd-pleaser at all costs.
