All’s Faire in Love

Putting it as kindly as possible, this pitiful romantic comedy directed by Scott Marshall (dad Garry did “Pretty Woman’’) peaks with its animated opening credits.

A literature professor (Cedric the Entertainer) tells a college quarterback (Owen Benjamin) he has to work for a summer at a local Renaissance faire or he’ll fail the course.

There our hero becomes smitten with fair maiden Christina Ricci, but faces insults from Chris Wylde — while Ann-Margret lords it over everyone and Matthew Lillard’s face gets urinated on by a goat.

According to IMDb, “All’s Faire in Love’’ was shot in 2007; Ricci and Benjamin were engaged from March to June of 2009.

This laugh- and chemistry-free commemoration of their relationship will be released on DVD in time for Valentine’s Day.
