unamazing
Fails to astound
Unamazing describes something that fails to impress or inspire wonder—the opposite of amazing.
The word carries a note of deliberate understatement or mild disappointment: The sequel was thoroughly unamazing.
It suggests something fell short of expectations rather than being outright bad.
