We were thoroughly underwhelmed by the movie we went to watch yesterday

“What are you doing here? I thought you were going on a picnic with your friends.”

“Are you crazy? How can you expect us to go on a picnic in this weather? It’s been pouring since yesterday. Why don’t we watch the movie that I’d recommended last week?”

“Like you, many of my friends were raving about the movie. So, I saw it yesterday. To tell you the truth, I was underwhelmed by it.”

“Underwhelmed? Does the word even exist?”

“It exists all right! When you say that you were ‘underwhelmed by something’, what you mean is that you weren’t really impressed by it.”

“In other words, in your case, the movie didn’t really excite you. It failed to make an impact on you”

“Yes, that’s right! It didn’t excite me at all. In fact, I was disappointed by it. Here’s another example. We went with a lot of expectations. But most of us were underwhelmed by the former Vice Chancellor’s speech.”
