'Masterminds'

Scene from this movie Patrick Stewart plays a debonair security expert hired by a private school, which he then takes over with a team of commandos. The scheme is to kidnap some rich kids whose parents run some big corporations, ask for a lot of money and then skedaddle. But Ozzie Paxton, a rebellious teen who’d been kicked out of the place the year before, gets trapped in the school after dropping off his little stepsister and takes a few cues from Macaulay Culkin to foil the evil conspirators. This includes the by-now obligatory computer-hacking tricks, the scootching along air ducts to eavesdrop, the hot-wiring of everything in sight from phones to closed-circuit TV to the sprinkler system. -- Eric Brace
