They all have perfectly serviceable stories, they’re not bad, they’re just not gripping - they don’t need to be. It’s fine, it gives you a goal, you get some emotional attachment, there’s cool little side-stories but none of that would carry a movie - it doesn’t have to.
If you can make a movie out of Tomb Raider
They’re all incredibly mid because they’re just action flicks except Lara Croft. If they didn’t have the brand name attached no one would remember them at this point, and much for the same reason: nobody played the Tomb Raiders that came out up until the movies for the story, what makes those games cool is actually playing them.

I guess I don’t consider action flicks inherently mid.

Silent Hill was amazing, but I doubt you’ll see it listed as a “top horror movie”. The Resident Evil franchise had enough momentum to generate six films in the franchise and a fair amount of parody. And Ready Player One is certainly memorable, if only because of the sheer volume of nostalgia packed into 90 minutes.
With a good screenwriter and director, Zelda will do fine. Hell, even the Mario movie was good enough as movies go, simply because of the Jack Black Bowser scenes carrying the show.
