Dull? I understand that they can sound a little "stereotypical" if you don't go much into their discography (most of their hits sound pretty much the same, just guitar+voice intro and a slow crescendo with bass+drums and more overlayered guitars)... But if you get a little more into their stuff, you realize they're a great band with great little unknown songs. They have no gradiosity, no vanity. They write, they record, they play, and do all of those things just for fun. Maybe that's the big difference - they're not incredibly huge...but maybe because they don't want to.

Snow Patrol have been kicking around over here for ages and are seen as a relatively big act but Ive always found them boring.

Yep, if you compare their UK Album sales of the last 3 releases, they're even bigger than U2.
To me, they're an amazing band, also the best support act I've ever seen. More a rock band than U2 is. But as you mentioned, to each their own.
