It means: tu no eres genial

When applied to a person, "génial" can be taken to mean "qui a du génie" (as in "un mathématicien génial" => an inspired mathematician, a genius of a mathematician).
On a familiar level, it can also mean "fantastique, formidable" (as in "un mec génial" => a great guy, a brilliant bloke).
Here, "tu n'es pas génial" could be rendered as "you're not too brilliant" or "you're no great shakes." But a little more context could help pin down the most suitable translation.
For instance, in certain situations one might exclaim "tu n'es pas génial" the same way one might say "you're not too smart" when trying to convey disappointment with another person's behaviour. In that sense, I suppose, the true feeling being expressed by "tu n'es pas génial" might be "I don't think you're being nice."

"You are not nice."
Er, I believe some other people answering are confusing genial with genious. Be careful of that.
