Why is it that when the wise men presented themselves before Herod, The Pharisees of the time did not think something wonderful/powerful was happening?

Did the Pharisees not recognize the coming Messiah? The wise men coming before Herod and quoting prophecy seems like it would be a big event.

Matthew 2:1 - 12

ESV - 1 Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem. 2 Saying, "Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.
