Hi,
There is a chance the filter is restricted. However, there are other things as well that can cause it. For example, the fuel pump may have failed, or you could have a faulty crankshaft position sensor.
Do me a favor. See if it starts for a couple of seconds if you use starting fluid. If it does, then we confirmed it is a fuel-related issue. If there is no change, I need you to check for spark at the plugs.
Here is a link that explains how it is done:

I would try this first to confirm it is a fuel issue. If, however, you want to replace the fuel filter first, I attached the directions specific to your vehicle below. The filter is near the charcoal canister under the vehicle. Also, here is a link you may find helpful as well:

Let me know what you find.
Take care,
Joe
