Here's one method using the dplyr and stringr packages.

library(dplyr, warn.conflicts = FALSE)
library(stringr)

data <- tibble(reviews = c("the dog is on the mat", 
                           "the cat is on top of the wall"))

data <- mutate(data, word_count = lengths(str_split(reviews, boundary("word"))))

print(data)
#> # A tibble: 2 x 2
#>   reviews                       word_count
#>   <chr>                              <int>
#> 1 the dog is on the mat                  6
#> 2 the cat is on top of the wall          8
