Check the trans. fluid (level surface, engine running, in park).

If the car will not move in neutral (pushing it), you may have a brake caliper stuck, parking brake cable stuck etc.

If it does move in neutral and the trans. is full of fluid, then you most likely have a bind in the trans. somewhere and would need to have it evaluated by a reputable trans. shop or dealer.
