Is there an antonym "pointfull"?

No. Possible antonyms (depending on meaning) are beneficial, meaningful, pointed, profitable, sensible

Senses
Some dictionaries distinguish the senses (a) without meaning, senseless, and (b) without purpose, purposeless. Some use "ineffectual" instead of "purposeless". My understanding of the distinction between the two: --Dan Polansky 09:36, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
 * purposeless := no purpose can be identified
 * ineffectual := the purpose in view cannot be achieved by the chosen method

scoreless
In sports, having or scoring no points --Backinstadiums (talk) 11:15, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
