Recommendation Sites

Here’s the thing, recommendations are usually generated from ratings but are you meant to rate something according to how good it is or how much you liked it?

I don’t like Silence of the Lambs but I recognise it is a good film. It is just I am squeamish about a lot of things. If I rate it low then it implies I don’t think it is any good but if I rate it high then I am likely to get recommendations for other horror films which is something I am definitely not interested in.
