I have 01 sport ,automatic, that will not move in reverse, it moves forward in neutral, while in drive it operates fine. Sometimes when starting it lunges a little bit. I have changed fluid and filter, fluid level is ok. I have disconnected shifter cable and shifted by hand still does the same thing, so cable is ok. Any help will be appreciated.

Sounds like it may be a Valve Body fault, or Clutch or Brake fault in the transmission.
You may want to do a cold trans fluid check to see if the Torque Converter and/or the trans oil pump is working properly. See pic below. If the fluid level does not drop, as described, the oil pump or TC may be faulty. If it does drop, I would suspect the Valve Body, clutches, or brakes in the trans.
