Interstella 5555. It's basically one long music video so there's no dialog and it's anime so the visuals are really striking

I mean, it was very clearly designed with the music in mind. Without it, you'll notice the loops and sped up movements a lot more, and it'll make less sense without the music.

Yes, all movies with sound typically are. I just mentioned it because I've been to bars that had it on TVs while other music was playing and it was really cool to look at

I'm gonna disagree with that first part. In most movies, the music is created to fit the footage. This is a rare feature-length movie where the footage is created to fit the music. As such, the visuals will warp to fit a score that, if you're watching it silently, isn't there.

It'll look cool, but there will be parts that look weird and you won't be sure why.

Like most movies designed to be viewed with sound. I think everyone reading this question assumed the asker knew silent movies exist. I offered something with engaging visuals that doesn't need dialog to explain the premise
