3. Schwarzenegger’s best and worst film according to IMDb
Comparing his films on IMDb, Terminator 2 has the best rating with 8.6 from an impressive 1.2 million ratings. In the sequel, he returns as the T-800. Unlike the first part, this time he is the anti-hero who must protect young John Connor from the T-1000.
