Is it hard to move? Or when it is out of park the shifter moves fine? These cars have a shifter interlock solinoid that gets sticky causing it not to release out of park. You can try removing center console and spraying with a brake cleaner to clean it up. If the shifter is all around hard to move then you need to spray the transmission shifter with penetrating fluid to free it up
