Is there no resistance on the wire that connects to the latch? Does the release move freely? Sounds like the wire broke to me.

You have two options. First, you can try grabbing the wire with a needle nose pliers and pulling. If you still get nothing, the wire is broken. This leaves you with only one option. Break the latch open with a crowbar. It will cost you a new latch, but atleast you will get inside. This happened to my first car, and I ended up having a dealer replace it.
