 Never thought at it like that. If just one friend of mine would suggest a film I would watch it even if the score in some site is low, because I trust his suggestion more then the ones made by others I do not know.

The system you suggest is like the one on Instagram at the moment.  So we know it could work.

But here we are daily looking at profiles that maybe nobody follows, so you still need something for them too. Maybe you'll get different algos give different scores.
