A Clockwork Orange vs. Dr Strangelove vs. 2001 A Space Odyssey -- vote for the best Kubrick movie!

I just saw A Clockwork Orange. It started out pretty good but the ending was an anticlimax. I expected more from a Stanley Kubrick movie.
My favorite of his is Dr Strangelove

which really is a must see, in my view one of the best movies of the 20th century. A good second would be 2001: A Space Odyssey.
A Clockwork Orange is strangely dated, quite unlike Kubrick I feel. I don't "get" the hype surrounding the movie, just gimme some Synthemesc and hold the Ultraviolence.
Which of these three do you like best?

after reading the book, I was inclined to see Clockwork.
I loved it, but haven't seen any others

Without a doubt, Dr. Strangelove. It is just as relevant now as it was when it was made.

Damn, what a hard decision. Although Dr. Strangelove is realistically the best choice, I chose A Clockwork Orange, simply because of Malcolm McDowell's brilliant performance. I've never been more turned on.
