In movies, after someone is shot they are in great pain or even crippled until someone pulls the bullet out. Once the bullet is plucked out and dramatically dropped into a bowl, the victim seems to be completely fine. Is the bullet being in the wound really the biggest problem? Is it preventing the wound from closing somehow?

In reality, taking the bullet out would actually be your biggest issue. If bullet is “stuck” in the hole, means it is also blocking your blood from spilling everywhere.
Any movie someone gets stabbed or hit with an arrow, and they take it out, that’s a no-no move in real life.
In most cases, a glass shard, bullet, arrow, knife, being stuck on you, means it is also stopping the haemorrhage.
Movies do it to make the “badass to take out a bullet and patch up”, in reality, that’s how you manage to kill someone by blood loss
