As a Fire Fighter who faces this problem on many cars with front end damage we normally pry the edge of the hood on the driver's side up gently, look for the black cable which runs from the hood release handle to the hood release and grab and pull. This works about 95 percent of the time. If not, try to look in through the grill in the hood release area and see if you can unbolt the whole hood release.
