I'd go with Watchmen.
The movie is like a moving painting. Just beautiful.
Or Valerian and a City of Thousand planets. That too is really stunning and vibrant.
Also GOTG2
I'm pretty sure I'm forgetting lots of CBMs, but from the ones I remember somewhat freshly Dr Strange
Top 3 according to me are:
BvS (The best)
Watchmen (close second)
MoS (would be second if not for the inferior colour grading in some scenes)
First movie that popped to mind was Doctor Strange. I find 300 to have better visuals than Watchmen but that's just my opinion.
IW, GOTG movies, Thor TDW, Thor Ragnarok, BvS, MoS, Dr Strange.
As for Watchmen. I saw the extended cut, and thought the movie was horrible. I don’t know why people think so highly of it.
Funny thing is, I was about to post this same thread.
batman vs superman, justice league, black panther, infinity war, ragnarok.
anytime they show and introduce new technologically/magically enhanced worlds like wakanda or asgard, those tend to be pretty stunning. aquaman may be another good one.
Avengers. The sheer spectacle of seeing all the avengers on screen the first time and actually working together is hard to top. The visuals is the reason that movie was a success in the first place.
Nah the hype was the reason it was a success.
Wonder Woman is one of the better looking films, let alone CBMs. Themyscira, WW1 London, No Man's Land, the dance hall, all of it is brought to life with the visuals. Easily the most redeeming quality about the movie, and overall is the best looking CBM.
As far as moments, Thanos and Strange duel and Dooomsday Superman duels are just too epic.

Nah the hype was the reason it was a success.
And that hype came from the fact we saw those characters on screen together. Many people (the casual audience mostly) weren't even really aware of after credits scenes before avengers.
@aka_aka_aka_ak: Hardly. It's good for the most part but there is some really ugly CGI [Final battle comes to mind].
As much as I like that hv v hv Superman v Doomsday in BvS, it's not my favorite.
Thanos v Strange looked cool, but it has no impact and it doesn't feel powerful.
Superman v Zod still tops my high tier / superman level fight sequences. They fought on the ground, in the air, in orbit and down again. It showcased the physical power of the Kryptonians that's actually relatable, consistent, realistic and most importantly it looks and feels powerful.
One of these scenes came from BvS, but it's still Superman v Zod followed by the Trinity v Doomsday for me.

No, sorry, perhaps I was unclear, "Wonder Woman is stunning to look at", i.e. the film Wonder Woman is the most visually stunning because the character of Wonder Woman is more stunning than any CGI could be.

Ok.
Watchmen, Sin City, BvS.
MoS and Infinity War close too. I've yet to see Valerian. Weren't impressed by trailers at all tho.
Blade Runner 2049??????????????????????????????????????
Not a CBM.
@jashro44: Well yeah... so it wasn't the visuals at all imo.
@deltahuman: Doomsday's CGI?
Batman v Superman/Dr. Strange
