I have had this problem after a fender bender that crimped the hood slightly. The way that I got the hood open finally was to take off the four bolts holding the latch to the crossbar. The grill was already broken there, so you may have to take the grill off to get to them. If you haven't noticed the hood latch before, it's just a pin with a slot milled around the tip that enters a hole with a piece of metal to match the slot. I think the two latches are tied together with some cable to actuate simultaneously and then they go back to the lever under the dash. Once the hood is up, you can see what was making it stick hopefully.
