Sounds like the Starter motor to me. Is in a manual or auto box? If it is manual try putting it in gear and taking the handbrake off, let the car move slightly and come to a rest. Put it back in neutral and try again. Failing that, give the starter motor a whack with a small hammer, not too hard but hard enough to free it if it's sticking!
