Default For anyone who knows KUBRICK, what should I watch?

I have become smitten with TWO Kubrick films of late:

THE SHINING and EYES WIDE SHUT.

For some reason, I like those two films more now than I ever have... and the more I watch them, the more I love them. They're becomming my favorite films!

The thing is, those are the ONLY TWO Kubrick films I've ever seen!

I don't doubt that all his other films are great. But what I like about EYES and SHINING are the pace, tempo, mood, vibe, and the fact that they're just as much about SOCIOLOGY as they PSYCHOLOGY.

With that said, which should I watch next? In other words, which do you think I'll like as much? Tell me 'why'.

I know they all get great reviews over at METACRITIC and ROTTEN TOMATOES...

EYES WIDE SHUT – (avail on Blu-ray)
Metacritic = 68
RT = 78

FULL METAL JACKET – (avail on Blu-ray)
Metacritic = 78
RT = 96

THE SHINING – (avail on Blu-ray)
Metacritic = 61
RT = 87

BARRY LYNDON – (avail on DVD)
RT = 94

A CLOCKWORK ORANGE – (avail on Blu-ray)
Metacritic = 78
RT = 91

2001 A SPACE ODYSSEY – (avail on Blu-ray)
Metacritic = 86
RT = 96

DR STRANGELOVE – (avail on Blu-ray)
Metacritic = 96
RT = 100

LOLITA – (avail on DVD)
RT = 97

..but just because one gets great reviews doesnt mean it's in the same vein of style, ya know what I mean? Maybe one is awesome, but not at all like a typical "KUBRICK" film ala THE SHINING or EYES WIDE SHUT. Tell me whatever you think... I'm open
