The Wolverine stars Hugh Jackman as the mutant with the claws and healing factor who goes to Japan to meet one of his loves-Mariko-as well as slice and dice his way to a bloody showdown with the Silver Samurai, Viper, multiple Ninjas and even his own mortality. Yukio assists greatly while warning him that in her mutant precognition, she saw him die. Just "amazing" doesn't quite cut it, bub...this is one of the better movies of the franchise, in my honest opinion! Watch.

Trivia: SPOILER! There is a mid credits scene that shows Logan going through airport security 2 years after the end of the movie, where he encounters Professor X and Magneto, who recruit him for a new mission that will be in the film X-Men: Days of Future Past.
Question: Was Logan's healing factor completely removed by Viper or just slowed down a lot? In the funeral fight scenes and on the train he was shot and stabbed multiple times, yet he was only slowed down. It seems if the healing factor was at 0% he would have bled to death right after. (Especially after a shotgun blast to the abdomen at point blank range) And is the healing factor back at 100% now even after the grandfather sucked a bunch of it out?

Answer: The healing factor was only reduced. Like you said, had it been removed he would have bled to death and every time he used his claws he would be bleeding from his hands. It is not revealed if it is at full strength at the end of the film, but it is likely it will return to full strength over time.
