I would recommend that you look at actions other than ratings as well.

Did a user expand and read 1 review?  did they read >3 reviews?

Did they mark a rating as useful?

Did they ask for contact information?

You know your system better than I possibly could, but using other
information in addition to ratings is very important for getting the
highest quality predictive information.

You can start with ratings, but you should push to get other kinds of
information as much as possible.  Ratings are often given by only a very
small number of people.  That severely limits how much value you can add
with a recommendation engine.  At the same time most people are busy not
giving you ratings, they are doing lots of other things that tell you what
they are thinking and reacting to.  If you don't pay attention to that
additional information, you are handicapping yourself severely.
